Bug#437009: No window borders in latest Compiz
I figure that's the issue for me - though I don't have access to a Lenny/Sid machine to test it at the moment. You can go ahead and close this if you wish...

I did read that post, but I guess I expected at least some basic plugins by default (functionality similar to metacity, only with compositing). If that's not possible, at the very least should README.Debian be updated, as it now reads; $ compiz --replace Which will start compiz, make it replace the current window manager and background the process so you can safely close the terminal again. If all went well, compiz should start up and enable a whole bunch of desktop effects. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
Bug#437009: No window borders in latest Compiz
found 437009 0.5.2-1 thanks I think I have the same problem, if not, I can file this as a separate bug. I nuked my compiz configuration after upgrading to 0.5.2 (wanting to try the default configuration), now the only plugin that is loaded after compiz --replace is gconf. I get window borders if I load the decorations plugin manually. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Tim, could you confirm that enabling the decoration plugin fixes your problem? thanks, Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Do you have DRI/AIGLX working and so ? gtk-window-decorator IS running after I do compiz --replace, and if I kill it and run compiz --replace again, I initially lose the borders. However, if I do compiz --replace a third time, I get the borders to appear. However, only some applications - and not all - get borders. In particular, newly-launched applications (after Compiz is run) never acquire borders, Which metacity/gnome are you running? Is the decoration plugin active? Which plugins do you have enabled? $ gconftool --get /apps/compiz/general/allscreens/options/active_plugins and tend to start in the top left-most corner of the screen rather than the middle of the screen. Unrelated problem, you need to play with the place plugin. Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Any warning? Is gtk-window-decorator running after starting compiz? if so, kill it and compiz --replace again and again?
