Can you force the use of metacity? You can do this with "mkdir -p $HOME/.config/compiz/; $HOME/.config/compiz/disable-compiz".

Can you paste the output of "CM_DRY=yes compiz-manager" ? (re Failsafe: that's an unrelated bug, especially if you mention it in a GNOME/Compiz bug; you might want to file it against the proper component) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Hanssen 2011-02-13 17:32:00 UTC --- Tried first to enable Destop Effects on the running Gnome 2.32 11.4 x86_64 Milestone 6. Immediately the Gnome desktkop icons and panel disappeared and just only the desktop background was left. Logging in to console and ran 'zypper dup' to RC1 with 'compiz-0.9.2.1-2.1.x86_64'. Reboot and logging in to Gnome 2.32.1 again, I still encountered a couple of bug-like side-effects on the ATI machine only: 1. The desktop icons were displayed, while the content on the bottom panel still was gone - just the empty, grey panel was shown. After some exploring and restarts, I tried the panel Properties and checked the "Show hide buttons", and then the panel icons appeared again. (I compared with my Nvidia machine and there this box was unchecked). Looks like this box must be checked for the panel icons to be stable displayed on the ATI machine. 2. Opening i.e Firefox and LibreOffice, both these windows appeared downscaled to about 50x50mm in the upper left corner of the desktop screen. This behaviour don't occure when opening Gnome terminal and gedit. (Not to confuse with possibly another bug, I'll mentione at the same time: After checking enabling desktop effects on the ATI machine, this box is kept enabled also next time I open desktop effects. This is not the case on the Nvidia machine, where this enabled box isn't kept checked nest time it is opened. I don't knoe if this might be related to the nouveau driver used) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Can you please try the current compiz* packages in X11:Compiz? I heavily suspect this bug also to be solved with those packages

Items 1 and 2 mentioned in comment #9 are known to be fixed in the X11:Compiz packages by the way.

Item 1: bug #670124 Item 2: bug #670600

Thus: please test with the packages in X11:Compiz to make sure we caught your bug as well.

Yes, but I wasn't able how to figure this out: First I added the following repo with YaST software manager http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/Compiz/openSUSE_Factory/ which contains the newer compiz-0.9.2.1-94.1.x86_64 But nihter YaST nor Zypper found any compiz updates, either I set priority 90 or 110 (all other repos have standard 99) Any suggestions? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
