I'm running Karmic Koala, and recent updates have broken compiz. 1. Compiz stopped starting automatically at start-up. I couldn't enable it in gnome-appearance-properties. It seems that compiz loads but then the properties dialog delays for a while and then comes back and says that it could not start compiz. After the dialog appears, the desktop goes back to just plain metacity.
2. I can force compiz to start by using "Startup Applications" but then I have to kill metacity everytime I start-up because it makes gconf-2 go to constant 30% CPU usage. I doubt that the issue is a Karmic problem as much as just a broken configuration.. I'll add to this when I figure it out. -- CPU always 100% CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293535 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gconf in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
