How I can use VirtueDesktops in my computer (Mac OS X 10.5.8)

I could not know how i can
If I enable motion sensor switching, desktops will move even if i do not touch it ??

And I want to ask about a program that you can see what happened in your computer when you are away
 
VirtueDesktops is meant for pre 10.5.x Mac OS X computers (10.3 or 10.4), as Leopard has Spaces as a virtual desktop manager.
Look into System Preferences > Exposé & Spaces.

It may not be as configurable as VirtueDesktops, but it does the trick.

As you might have seen on the official homepage of the developer, s/he is not making a 10.5.x release.

Also how do you wanna view what happened on your Mac while you were away? In pictures, as video, as a log?

There is an application that makes timed screenshots (from 1 second onwards):

You can use SpaceSuite with spaces and expose and get back the functionality of VirtueDesktops--without the problems of VirtueDesktops. I've been using SpaceSuite for a couple of months now on two systems with no problems.

Ah I can't believe I didn't mention SpaceSuite earlier...great program. Thanks for the reminder!

OP: It is very sad that VirtueDesktops got replaced by Spaces. I have very fond memories of it in Tiger.
 
Thanks guys ..


but I am surprised, why VirtueDesktops doesn't work with 10.5
I think it is better than spaces
