I haven't heard anyone who got compiz working out of the box with OS
11.1. I would suggest letting the installation delete .conf/compiz.
Otherwise it doesn't seem to work at all.
Maybe also add the SKIP_CHECKS by default?

Erik.

Add the Compiz XGL repository (Compiz packages without NOMAD patches).

sudo zypper ar
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/XGL/openSUSE_Factory/ Compiz

Note: The above one line

Update the packages from that XGL Build Service repository:

sudo zypper up -t package -r Compiz

Switch to runlvl3

sudo init 3

login..

rm -rf ~/.config/compiz

sudo init 5

Log back in.. and you should be good....

I also wrote a bit about it here..
