Thanks... I was wondering if it was actually something else.. Here's why:

I want to turn off the hotspot in the top left hand corner that switches desktops. Several times a day I move the mouse there when going to the file menu in Firefox for example, and if I overshoot the mouse pointer FF minimises and I have to re-open the desktop.

If I go to Menu >Preferences >Cinnamon Settings > Hot Corner, i see that 'Hot corner enabled' is ticked, and Hot corner position is Top Left.

I uncheck the Hot corner enabled box and close the dialogue, but the hot corner is still active in the top left corner of my screen.

If I go to Menu >Preferences >Cinnamon Settings > Hot Corner again I see that 'Hot corner enabled' is now not ticked which shows that the change was saved, but nothing has actually changed as far as the 'Hot corner' being dissabled. :(

Am I doing something wrong, shouldn't the Hot Corner now be dissabled? I have shut down and restarted the computer, but still have the active Hot Corner.. Since the GUI doesn't work, is there another way to turn the Hot Corner off?

Thanks,

I just spent some time 'Gooling' this and find that has previously been reported as a Bug at Launchpad.

So presumably affects all dual screen mintbox users... :?:
