Public bug reported: In Gutsy 7.10 beta, after a fresh install, I experience three problems with changing the visual effects from None to another option:
1) A dialog box pops up reading "Composite extension not enabled." The dialog provides no automatic way or instructions to enable the composite extension. I thought Compiz/Beryl were enabled by default in Gutsy? I learned by searching the forums how to edit by xorg.conf file to do so, but I would recommend this be automated, and I don't understand why it wasn't done by default. 2) Clicking 'OK' in that dialog box does not make it go away. It just pops up again immediately. To close it permanently, one has to click on the standard close button in the top right. The 'OK' button should trigger the dialog to close. 3) After closing the dialog, the Visual Effects radio button I chose that caused the dialog to appear is selected, even though those Visual Effects are not enabled. Closing the dialog should keep the Visual Effects selection where it was originally. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- composite extension not enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/148221 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
