by 'failed' I mean that the desktops effects program, failed to be enable compiz , so all the compiz eye candy does not initialize.
You mean compiz cannot be started. Which desktop is this? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

So what happens when you run compiz?
I mean what happens when you run compiz-manager --replace & in a terminal? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

$HOME/.config/compiz/compiz-manager :
SKIP_CHECKS=yes
Ok, su thus this is the file / setting that makes compiz-manager ignore it's knowledge about the missing 3D render capabilities and thus results in the message cited in this bug. Remove the file $HOME/.config/compiz/compiz-manager and the error will vanish. (compiz is not able to run on this hardware with the opensource driver) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
