Of course users can always install it and try to run it, but will give only problems. I'm not the right person to say it should be ditched, but given the problems with KDE and now GNOME3, considering there won't be a GNOME2 in 12.1, I don't really see any future for Compiz on openSUSE. Furthermore, I don't even believe it's building in Factory. Either way, I don't see any way besides the traditional 'Don't do it, it's unsupported' warnings to prevent users from trying to load compiz. -- 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.

This script and logic is actually not part of GNOME3, which makes me wonder how your compiz gets autostarted. Starting ccsm and 'enabling' compiz is obviously not really a good idea (compiz mighw come up properly, but there is just no 'session' to host it for') => We might want to add OnlyShowIn=XFCE,LXDE to the compiz settings .desktop files. -- 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.

I've introduced a test version yesterday and I'm going to finish packaging the rest of the stack. I do have the session files for it (though linked to a Unity session, tested and working). Just as a heads up. If my 'vote' matters for something, I would suggest we dropped compiz and provided compiz 0.8.6 on a sepperate repository for those who wanted it, and remove it from default patterns. We have far more juicy stuff to ship instead of compiz. Lets be honest, what kind of sick and perverted mind would prefer GNOME fallback mode with compiz to the shell ? -- 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.
