Compiz-Fusion Help

[deviance]

I can run Compiz fine, but no windows boarders load, I have tried variouse methods, including emerald, but none seem to work.

Apart from that CF works fine.

This is my xorg.conf:

# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.

Re: Compiz-Fusion Help

Just a bit more info:

Running emerald after CF is started gives me:
emerald: Could not acquire decoration manager selection on screen 0 display ":0.0"

Running emerald --replace after CF is started gives me:
(emerald:16410): Wnck-WARNING **: Unhandled action type (nil)

Re: Compiz-Fusion Help

What does it say when you run

compiz

in the console window?


If you have the Emerald package installed (i.e. you can see the Emerald Theme Manager with Kmenu>Settings), then I think all you need to do is check the Window Decorations box in the Compiz settings window. That would be KMenu>Settings>Advanced Desktop Effects Settings, then go down to the "Effects" section and put an x in the box in front of Window Decoration.

You might need to restart the x server after you do this, and again run

compiz

in the console. It is a little flaky to get it going -- it was on my rig too.

Re: Compiz-Fusion Help

Windows decorations are enabled.

Compiz gives me:
There is already the kwin win manager running, you should use the --replace option to override it

Running Compiz --replace gives me:
