shadyro...@dell-desktop:~$ compiz Detected GNOME failsafe session. Launching fallback window manager
This is all I could get. Nothing else would print out. If I try to close the terminal I get this message-"There is still a process running in this terminal. Closing the terminal will kill it." Hope this helps! Also, screensaver won't start. I don't know if that is pertinent, but I believe some of that depends on compiz. Thanks for your help.
