[opensuse] Compiz on ATI: Worked until I installed fusion-icon?
After I installed ATI 8.42, Compiz fusion worked as it should - however, I got the common problem of the systray icons being scattered around, and the kicker panel not working properly. I thought it might be a good idea to install fusion-icon - in order to quickly switch compiz on and off. But the next time I logged on, the once-working Compiz was reduced to a sad state - unmovable windows without borders/window decorations, no working visual effects, etc. Of course, I tried to remove fusion-icon again, but it didn't help. I tried to manually start compiz: compiz-manager & didn't do it, compiz --replace ccp & gave me the broken desktop with the borderless windows. Any ideas?

From the compiz-fusion icon in the system tray (if you can see it) try temporarily selecting kwin as the window manager, then switch back to compiz. I've managed to get back window decorations on occasion using this method. -- Don -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
