    Did that in the past and somehow or someway it stopped.


    Because the winamp volume controller resets the windows volume controller.

    My Winamp3 minimizes quite nicely to either the taskbar, the systray, or both.

        Have they fixed the bug that winamp 3 has when you put more then 16384 songs in the media library?

          They should have.
          Given the number, it sounds like a number range problem. Few programs work well at the edge of their number range.

              No, they just couldn't figure out the normal versioning system, so they're spewing random but increasing numbers for their versions.

                I just discovered some new things with Winamp 5. On the Modern skin, things get added when you drag the box bigger (either in window shade mode or in standard mode).

                Like when you make the standard box bigger, a beat-sensing thing comes up (2nd picture).

                The first picture is how I use Winamp in Windowshade mode.

                    Well Asher? Can Windows provide 300 desktops arranged 3x10x10?

                      Probably not, frankly I've never tried.

                      It's like bragging about how you're able to set your monitor in 1x1 ASCII character mode -- what's the point and what kind of masochist uses it?

                      Do you really have such a lack of organizational skills that you can't deal with 4 desktops at once? That's incredible, really.

                      To me it's another example of where Linux excels at stupid, useless, and trivial things and has yet to provide useful things like a responsive UI and decent font anti-aliasing.

                      Beware geeks with free time.

                        Lack of? Did you even read the post I linked to? I keep my windows well organized and seperate.

                        To me, it's another example of a place where Windows has a limit and Linux does not.

                          If you need 300 active desktops on one computer, you do have some major organizational problems. 99% of users make do with one, others with two or more, but mostly on dual monitors.

                          Using multiple desktops to the tune of hundreds per machine is simply and unquestionably retarded and time wasted developing such capabilities.

                          Who said Windows has the limit? Linux uses third party programs to do it, why don't you do the same for Windows if you really want it?

                          It's certainly possible in Windows, it's just that to my knowledge no one has ever tried.

                          Most people are too smart to actually need 300 desktops on a single machine, running at once...

                          To me, it's another example of just how f*cked up Linux users really are, and why it'll never get anywhere on the desktop until they get their priorities straight.

                            I can only have 9 virtual desktops running at once with the software I currently have installed, and that's a limit I'll have to live with.

                            How about some usability questions:
                            1) Do you still need to worry about library versions and incompatibily constantly in Linux while "installing" programs? (Yes)
                            2) Is it still impossible in most distros to change the screen resolution on the fly without rebooting XWindows? (Yes)
                            3) Is there complete and adequate support for mousewheels and 3rd, 4th, and 5th mouse buttons? (No)
                            4) Does the text still look like **** compared to WinXP and OS X? (Yes)

                            But wait! It supports 300 virtual desktops. None of the above matters, we know our priorities.

                              There is for the 3rd button.
                              4) Does the text still look like **** compared to WinXP and OS X? (Yes)

                              I haven't taken a close look at XP or OS X's text, so I won't comment on this one.

                              And being able to use your 3d nav skills in your computer should be low priority?

                                I think that we can all agree that the Microsoft distribution of Windows is unspeakably horrible and that someone should fork it and start distributing an improved one.
