I had to quickly Google. I changed that years ago. Just seeing those little icons was stupid and unhelpful.
Right-click taskbar > Properties > Taskbar
Taskbar buttons: Change from "Always combine, hide labels" to either "Combine when taskbar is full" or "Never combine."
I have mine set to "never combine." I don't like the icons overlapping. I want to see exactly what folders and things are open.

Speaking of resolutions, mine is 1152x864. It's an old CRT type, so that's about as high as it goes without giving me a headache.

It's a pity that games often don't let you play in 640x480 anymore. Even my OS doesn't support it. :cry:

Buy a cheap monitor on Gumtree.
It's like R900-1500 for a 1920x1080 monitor.

Heck, I bought a 85Hz 1920x1440 CRT for R50 there :p

R900-R1500 isn't my idea of cheap. :lol:

Thanks for the recommendation. I'll look around on there for any good deals, but I'm thinking of getting a laptop, so it's probably a moot point.

Considering that you have monitors that cost 20k+, R900 is pocket change.

So what if their different resolutions, it's still cool! I kinda miss mine, but the gun shop needed a surveillance system, and my screen was convenient and free... :(

Why did you move it around like that? (A little farther away and down)

No its just how it does the background of the second screen. I't takes the same size one from the smaller/main screen's backround(even though the image is HUGE) and centers it in the second.

It might be... Its strange, my original pic is 3400 pixels wide, but also does the exact same(small pic in center) when I connect it to our 1920 pixel wide TV...

Well the image is 1980x1080 but both screens are smaller than that resulting in what is happening now.

Here's my contribution. The screen on the left is actually on the right. Its confusing for most, but that’s how I roll.

Also I haven't really 'moved-in' on this machine yet (hence a fairly 'boring' looking Ubuntu). I’m just using it for a temporary workstation until I can afford to get a gaming setup again.

EDIT: I need to resize this now? Gimme 10 minutes.

Please use the in-built image uploader and do not embed photos. As it breaks the forum width constraint (or lack thereof). And no, they will not fix it. I have asked before.
