[Bug 231773] Re: when compiz crashes, it destroys my configuration from compizconfig
Update: It seems CCSM (CompizConfig) doesn't work *at all* To reproduce: 1. Install CCSM 2. play with the settings. Turn something noticeable, such as the desktop cube, on 3. If you can see the effect of step 2 (else goto step 4), go to System-Preferences-Appearance-Visual effects tab, and click a radio button. 4. Your settings in CCSM are ignored in favor of the (extremely simplistic) settings shown in the screenshot. -- when compiz crashes, it destroys my configuration from compizconfig https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231773 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug basically broils down to the loss of the custom radio button, and the new, invasive approach to settings management that the appearence dialog/control center takes (it breaks into and modifies custom settings) -- when compiz crashes, it destroys my configuration from compizconfig https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231773 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is what the dialog box looks like when custom settings have been applied. ** Attachment added: dialog box with custom configuration (via CompizConfig) http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14593587/Screenshot-Appearance%20Preferences-1.png -- when compiz crashes, it destroys my configuration from compizconfig https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231773 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
