 Ghost Activity [Solved]I have been using multiple activities under KDE 4.x since 4.2. I am currently using M11B2 with KDE 4.5.3. Recently I've noticed a ghost image when I activate my desktop cube. I appears to be a 'folderview' with several broken icons. It has the effect of turning the wallpaper of the desktop it's behind greenish.
I have looked through the config files and can't find an extra containment. I even removed the config files and rebuild me activities and it still appears. The link below shows my cube, if you look closely you can see the ghost image. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19142735/m11desktop5.png Any ideas? _________________ AMD Phenom II X6 1055T Processor, Nvidia GTS 450, LG W2042TQ (1680x1050)/ViewSonic VP191b(1280x1024), Broadcom BCM4306 Wireless, 8GB RAM M11-64, +sid, +KDE SC 4.9.5, liquorix 3.7.0-4 , Nvidia 313.18

Re: Ghost Activity The cube is transparent and you are seeing the desktop on the other side of the cube.

Re: Ghost Activity No that's not it, here is a better view of the other side of the cube.

Re: Ghost Activity Then I am not sure what I am seeing, as it still looks it to me. But I do not know your desktop as you do, so I am most likely mistaken.

Re: Ghost Activity Looking at 2nd screeny. Blue Wallpaper looks transparent and is catching reflection of back of other desktop of cube. I don't use compiz or cubes but if me. I would try a more nontransparent wallpaper to see if ghost image goes away or if you know how to set transparency for cube. Fix that.

Re: Ghost Activity I've updated the image.
The icons on the ghost do not match any of my desktops. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19142735/m11desktop1.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19142735/m11desktop2.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19142735/m11desktop3.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19142735/m11desktop4.png _________________ AMD Phenom II X6 1055T Processor, Nvidia GTS 450, LG W2042TQ (1680x1050)/ViewSonic VP191b(1280x1024), Broadcom BCM4306 Wireless, 8GB RAM M11-64, +sid, +KDE SC 4.9.5, liquorix 3.7.0-4 , Nvidia 313.18

Re: Ghost Activity Not if you read the labels. I can't read the top two as they're obscured, but from there down they're labeled:

Re: Ghost Activity
Tim, I don't know what you're looking at, he drew a circle around 3 icons, the same 3 icons in the first row of the picture I posted a link to. _________________ Registered Linux User #380263 Registered Linux Computer #279395 Linux, working hard to save you $$$ - Get a clue, get Linux!

Re: Ghost Activity I can't find another folderview in the config file: /home/Stephen/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc
Here is another look at exactly what I'm looking at. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19142735/m11desktop7.png _________________ AMD Phenom II X6 1055T Processor, Nvidia GTS 450, LG W2042TQ (1680x1050)/ViewSonic VP191b(1280x1024), Broadcom BCM4306 Wireless, 8GB RAM M11-64, +sid, +KDE SC 4.9.5, liquorix 3.7.0-4 , Nvidia 313.18
