I also had this problem after upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04, but what I did was to go to System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Visual Effects and change from None to Normal This enabled desktop effects and window borders, i.e. everything was normal again. Then I went to System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications -> Options and clicked on "Remember Currently Running Applications" and the settings were okay after next reboot.
I suppose this was equivalent to adding "compiz --replace" manually to startup applications. My desktop was pretty much standard GNOME desktop and I have no idea whether I was running emerald or something else before the upgrade. I also saw the missing /usr/bin/compiz.real entry in the syslog so the symlink would probably have worked for me too. -- Must reenable desktop effects with every restart in ubuntu 10.04 lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563161 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
