Small Ubuntu problems inside.

[Trifid]

I finally bothered to swap around my sata cables so the OS harddrive was in SATA1.

Anyway just some Q's that I would like answered.

1. Is there a way to get the back and forward buttons to work on my mouse?

2. I had the cube thing working all of 2 mins. Now when ever I change desktop I just get a blank wallpaper screen and no way of getting back to the main one other than mashing the keyboard. The cube is enabled but doesn't work.

3. When I middle click scroll I get ghosts of the middle click thing (I don't know its name.)

looks like above. Is there anyway to make it not do that?

4. How do I change the order of the boot loader. (I want XP on a 3 second timer as default.) - Edit: found this one.

Thanks, Trif.

It's a Logitech MX518.

I have a Nvidia 7800GT. I didn't, it installed the drivers when I chose to have desktop effects.

thing has ghosts so I will get one every 1/2 inch or so of screen space when I scroll down there will be another.

Excellent. Getting Beryl to work put me off the Badger one. (I couldn't get it to work and kept on messing up the GUI so I had a text based UI.)
