Gnome 3 Tweaks and Extensions
by Justin Garrison • 2012/09/03 • How-to, Linux • 1 Comment
I have been using Fedora 17 with Gnome 3 for a few weeks now and I wanted to let everyone know about some tweaks I have found to make it much more usable and some annoyances I have yet to solve.
Change touchpad delay after typing This has been super annoying because the default delay for the touchpad is 2 seconds! Here’s how to set it to whatever delay you want.
First, turn off the “disable touchpad when typing setting” in your system settings and then open a terminal and enter the following command.
syndaemon -d -K -i 0.3s
Change 0.3s to whatever you want the delay to be. For more info just run man syndaemon.
Install guake and other terminal shortcuts
Here are some gnome-shell extensions I found useful
Alternate Alt+Tab to cycle all windows

Alternate system menu (show shutdown option)

Maximus clone to remove boarders on full screen programs

Impatience to speed up animations
