Public bug reported: I'm using Ubuntu Precise beta 1 with all current updates (amd64).
So far, I was able to switch from unity (3d) to metacity without logging off, with the following command-line : metacity --replace See discussion here : https://answers.launchpad.net/unity- 2d/+question/189486 Since the upgrade of compiz to version 0.9.7.2-0ubuntu1, it does not work any more : unity seems to be automatically relaunched. It was working with previous version of compiz (0.9.7.0+bzr3035-0ubuntu1) ** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: regression-update ** Tags added: regression-update -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/963892 Title: metacity --replace does not work any more since compiz 0.9.7.2-0ubuntu1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/963892/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
