You also have to turn on decoration. and window moving, and window
resizing... Run the config tool and set all that up first. 

It's a pain to get working initially.

Don't forget to enable window decoration feature (run ccsm) and select your
decorator. I'd recommend using fusion-icon, makes things much more
accessible.

Thanks a lot. After I set windowmanager to compiz everything seems to be
OK now.

Did you set 'window decorator' to 'gtk-window-decorator --replace' or
'emerald --replace' in compiz?

I've been using it (and vanilla compiz before it) for several months
with nvidia drivers.  No problems.

Compiz-fusion still have problems with due screens tho. Menu pots up
very slowly. It's been discussed quite a lot on the internet, you can
google for it.

I've been using it for months with NVidia and Intel drivers; not a
problem. Well, with NVidia
you need to unload the v4l module for X.org, otherwise it crash X; but
that's the only issue.

Also, I recommend to grab the fusion-icon package from the xeffects overlay.

I had the same problem with getting compiz-fusion to work under xfce and
the portage ebuilds. I never used the xeffects overlay for compiz-fusion
only for the old beryl.

I used this command:
compiz --loose-binding --replace ccp && emerald --replace &

A strange thing is that it only works when I execute it a few times. The
first time I had no window decorations!

Another thing is when I want to go back to the xfce window manager the
decorations vanished again, the mouse pointer too. I could only bring
them back by deleting a few config files in my home-directory.

Furthermore the dependency for libwnck was raised a few days ago which
resulted in pulling the unstable gtk+ glib and pango packages in.

This hosed all my apps requiring gtk which means nearly everything. I
downgraded but this did not help. I had to unmerge and then reemerge
glib to get things working again.

So I think I will leave my fingers from compiz-fusion until it is more
stable or anybody knows a solution to this problems!

Daniel
