Compiz code for taking over as composite manager: XSetSelectionOwner (dpy, cmSnAtom, newCmSnOwner, wmSnTimestamp);
if (XGetSelectionOwner (dpy, cmSnAtom) != newCmSnOwner) { compLogMessage (d, "core", CompLogLevelError, "Could not acquire compositing manager " "selection on screen %d display \"%s\"", i, DisplayString (dpy)); continue; } It waits for metacity to give up the WM_S0 selection before running this bit so I'm not sure what exactly is going on but I'm pretty sure it's on metacity's side. -- compiz doesn't start if metacity compositor is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/178953 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
