You have been subscribed to a public bug:
I upgraded to the latest alpha version of 9.10 , the upgrade process
uninstalled several packages including compiz.
I expected compiz to be working after the upgrade, it wasn't.
When the upgrade was completed, I had lost the 3d effects and I didn't
have a window manager. My windows had no outer border.
After updating my system by checking for new updates, the problem hadn't
been resolved.
I went into synaptic manager and could see that several compiz
components were installed e.g compiz-core, but compiz itself wasn't
installed.
I manually installed compiz , then switched on 3d effects and everything
was back to normal.
I suspect that there is a glitch somewhere in the update process as far
as compiz is concerned.
