Re: compiz again

I just made a new icon on the desktop and under application entered the run command
"compiz --replace"
but I have no idea how to stop it other than restart x

Hope this helps

Re: compiz again

Kill the process, but you will end up without a window manager. In this case, rerun kwin.
If you created a session for Compiz, you don't need to restart X, just switch to the KDE session.

Re: compiz again

Put a file with this in ~/.kde/Autostart

#!/bin/bash
compiz --replace

and name it something like compiz.sh. Make sure to mark it executable (Right-click > Properties > Permissions).
