In KDE 3.5 you need to edit the text file $HOME/.kde/share/config/ksmserverrc and change the line defaultWM=

Give it a shot and report back. (move or remove the Autostart/start-compiz script if you installed it)
Hi David,
Yeah things get really mysterious here.
1. I did the script and put it in the autostart folder as you suggested, then when I restarted I got two compiz fusion icons in the taskbar next to each other and yet compiz was not started. Again, if I click on one of them and do reload window manager everything comes back to normal.
Weird thing: In settings for compiz (CCSM), I enabled the splash screen for compiz, and now when I login, the splash screen is actually coming up (fancy written compiz fusion with some waves around it), but still no compiz, no cube, no emerald.
2. I also checked in the ksmserverrc... file you said, __________________________________ [General] confirmLogout=true defaultWM=compiz-manager <<- added this line, still no luck excludeApps= loginMode=restorePreviousLogout offerShutdown=true screenCount=1 shutdownType=0 windowManager=compiz <<- used to have this line before __________________________________
It's strange that this has never happened before, I didn't even had fusion icon before and I don't remember doing anything after my first install, it just worked.
Thanks a lot anyways, I really appreciate your help.
Sergey
You have 2 fusion icons because you run it twice in your ~/kde/Autostart/ folder... (1 symlink: compiz-manager -> /usr/bin/compiz-manager and 2nd the new script...) Just remove one of them... (i suggest the script... compiz manager is not the problem) I cannot help you with the autostart problem though... :-( Gryffus
