    Missing titlebars

    Here are the results of the compiz check.

    Distribution: Ubuntu 8.04
    Desktop environment: KDE
    Graphics chip: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
    Driver in use: intel
    Rendering method: AIGLX

    Checking if it's possible to run Compiz on your system...

    Checking for texture_from_pixmap... [ OK ]
    Checking for non power of two support... [ OK ]
    Checking for composite extension... [ OK ]
    Checking for FBConfig... [ OK ]
    Checking for hardware/setup problems... [WARN]

    Something potential problematic has been detected with your setup:
    Warning: PCI ID 8086:2a02 detected.

    Would you like to know more? (Y/n) y

    Your particular graphics chip may be blacklisted on certain distributions.
    However that does not necessarily mean you won't be able to run Compiz.

    You can skip this blacklist -- but keep in mind that you did so.
    Do not complain if you encounter any problems with Compiz afterwards.

    and here is my display information:

    A gray bar appears where the titlebar should be when I run emerald through terminal. The buttons are still there but not visible.

    I hope this is enough info.

    Re: Missing titlebars

    it was prob. blacklisted because it couldn't run compiz very well or not stable enough. Do u have all updates installed?

      I'm running compiz on an Intel 965 and it's working fine.
      What happens if:

      1. you run "kde-window-decorator --replace" at the prompt?
      2. You install emerald (aptitude install emerald) and run "emerald --replace" at the prompt?
