Probably there is an easy workaround: uninstall all Compiz packages. My system: openSUSE 11.4 factory-tested (now status Milestone 5 - until Milestone 3 updated to factory or factory-tested) Linux 2.6.37-rc5-12-desktop GNOME 2.32.1 i686 i386 Samsung X20 Pentium M 740 Intel 915GM 1400x1050 The bug is there/shown till I could activate Desktop Effects on openSUSE 11.4 factory / factory-tested / milestones at all (see bug #642963 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642963 Unable to launch desktop effects - 'compizconfig.Plugin' object has no attribute 'Screens'). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 0. ? (Log in GNOME, enable Compiz ("Desktop Effects") via Simple CCSM, log out/shut down) ? 1. Log in GNOME, dis-enable Compiz ("Desktop Effects") via Simple CCSM, log out/shut down 2. Boot/log in again. Actual Results: Compiz ("Desktop Effects") are again enabled (unwanted [because of bug 656060] and without doing anything else). Expected Results: Disable Compiz ("Desktop Effects") via Simple CCSM and let them stay disabled Trying to do a bit troubleshoting: Starting simple-ccsm (named "Desktop Effects" in the Control Center) via console emulator (GNOME terminal) gives: [CODE]~> simple-ccsm Backend : ini Integration : true Profile : default Adding plugins Initializing core options...done Initializing animation options...done Initializing animationaddon options...done Initializing ezoom options...done Initializing mag options...done Initializing cube options...done Initializing cubeaddon options...done Initializing switcher options...done Initializing shift options...done Initializing ring options...done Initializing staticswitcher options...done Initializing compiztoolbox options...done Initializing mousepoll options...done Initializing move options...done Initializing gnomecompat options...done Initializing decor options...done Initializing opengl options...done Initializing place options...done Initializing thumbnail options...done Initializing wobbly options...done Initializing glib options...done Initializing screenshot options...done Initializing composite options...done Initializing imgpng options...done Initializing resize options...done Initializing rotate options...done Initializing imgjpeg options...done Initializing workarounds options...done [/CODE] and than clicking on "[] Enable desktop effects" to "[x] Enable desktop effects" gives: [CODE] Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/simple-ccsm", line 1326, in EnableDesktopEffectsChanged subprocess.Popen(cmd) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 672, in __init__ errread, errwrite) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1201, in _execute_child raise child_exception OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory [(CODE] and than clicking on "[x] Enable desktop effects" to "[ ] Enable desktop effects" gives: [CODE] Checking for Xgl: not present. xset q doesn't reveal the location of the log file.
