[Bug 453912] Re: compiz is off after login; no window borders
In October last year, i got a new harddisk and migrated my files to this, omitting most of the hidden folders. This solved the problem for me. Probably there was something in the configuration files that caused this error. Taavi Palo's hint to (re)move the .local folder may be worth investigating for people who still have this issue. For now, i guess this bug can be closed: it only happened on upgrade to Karmic, and we have moved on to Lucid now. ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Invalid -- compiz is off after login; no window borders https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453912 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

[Bug 453912] Re: compiz is off after login; no window borders
i'm sort of affected. After login I sometimes do not have borders. Most of the time it works OK but I'd say about 1 out of 6 times it fails and I need to log out/log in to get my borders back with compiz. -- compiz is off after login; no window borders https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453912 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
[Bug 453912] Re: compiz is off after login; no window borders
In my case it had something to do with .local folder in my home. After renaming that folder everything works again. I haven't had time to figure out what exactly in that folder is causing that, but I hope it gives you a glue. -- compiz is off after login; no window borders https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453912 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

I just installed Karmic on my other machine running ATI x800 using the open source driver and I'm having to same problem. I cannot enable desktop effects.

[Bug 453912] Re: compiz is off after login; no window borders
Alas, i ran jockey (jockey-gtk), but no change. I still get the spinner, and no window borders. (Actually, the message i get when enabling desktop effects for the first time is this: Searching for available drivers.) The jockey's output was: no proprietary drivers were found on the system. -- compiz is off after login; no window borders https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453912 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

Just tried it, and it doesn't help.

I withdraw that, the spinner is still there on reboot, it had only disappeared when i logged out and in again.

Re: [Bug 453912] Re: compiz is off after login; no window borders
Try reselecting the driver via jockey. If you have the same problem you should be fine after a reboot.

I examined .compiz and .config/compiz as well as config files in other locations and could not see any differences between the bugged box and a working box. The following commands fixed the problem: sudo apt-get remove --purge compiz compizconfig-backend-gconf compiz- core compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-gnome compiz-plugins compiz-wrapper libcompizconfig0 rm -rf ~/.config/compiz rm -rf ~/.compiz sudo apt-get remove --purge compiz compizconfig-backend-gconf compiz- core compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compiz-fusion-plugins-main compiz-gnome compiz-plugins compiz-wrapper libcompizconfig0 Evidently this is some sort of failed update.
