[Bug 390027] Re: Desktop effects could not be enabled
I'm having the same problem. I'm running Karmic Alpha 3 on a Vaio T-130. The effects worked fine after install. In the Appearance I deactivated the effects and now can't activate them anymore, at least not through the Appearance dialog. Like Asif and Jeremy I can get the effects back running compiz --replace but after a shutdown/reboot effects don't work again. I added compiz --replace to the startup programs as a workaround. -- Desktop effects could not be enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390027 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 390027] Re: Desktop effects could not be enabled
Same. Trying to enable compiz via System/Preferences/Appearance results in a X restart. Forcing compiz via 'compiz --replace' works. 9.10 up-to-date, Radeon X1250. I am not sure when it started (one week ago?); to get things back to working state under metacity I was still forced to 'metacity --replace', since metacity seems to be defaulting to --composite nowadays. For me, to reproduce: all I need is to login. -- Desktop effects could not be enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390027 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I have the same problem, with an nvidia graphics card. Running compiz --replace works for me though as well. -- Desktop effects could not be enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390027 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
