Personally, the only occurrence of compiz.real on my computer was due to me creating the symlink after I had read it could fix the problem. It did not. -- [regression-release] Compiz fails to decorate windows after upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572617 You received this bug notification

For me, the same. This seems to be not at all a compiz bug, but a gnome-session one... So, not only upgrading between two consecutive releases may give a lot of headache, but also sharing the home directory between consecutive releases. ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed =

So there are two problems here. Compiz no longer ships a file called compiz.real and gnome-session doesn't have any kind of fallback when the WM saved in your session no longer exists. A hack in the compiz package to ship a symlink would fix this one instance of the problem but a fix in

Well, actually, I encountered no trace of compiz.real in the various error logs I've checked. Also, I have removed any session links saved in the $HOME/.compiz/session directory, but some seem to make their way back, so maybe that is indeed the problem. -- [regression-release] Compiz fails to

From bug #587689 I renamed .compiz with no effect, except on first reboot the boot stopped when it encountered the error given in bug #562843. However, re-creating .config/gnome-session cured my problem with both window decoration and saving the Visual Effects setting. On first reboot, window

Right, so what happens is you saved your session in karmic and that saved compiz.real as a program to run in your session. In lucid compiz.real doesn't exist so gnome-session tries to start it and fails. Ideally gnome-session would then just start the default WM (compiz) but it does not. That's

Like my two compadres above, I'm encountering the same symptoms. Upgraded from Karmic, doesn't work, but does work for a brand new user. I've looked into my xsessions-error but fixed all the errors, to no avail. I'm currently working around the problem by launching /usr/bin/compiz at startup,

It seems that this problem never happens to new user accounts created after upgrading to Lucid. It is thus related a bad handling of Karmic home directories. We can run more tests to confirm this. From what I remember, removing .gnome* and .gconf* were not helping either. However, removing all

The source of the problem does appear to be related to something in the user's home. I have 2 user accounts on my machine the problem only manifests itself for *one* of the user sessions. Like many of the folks here, I originally upgraded from Karmic - Lucid. I also later went to the trouble of
