Oh, forgot this: In other words, the problem should go away if users install compiz and compiz-gnome package (which is a dependency to compiz so just mark that one for installation).
The bug report should probably be changed to another package, right? I'm assuming that the fault lies in either gnome-appearence-properties for not installing the right compiz packages, or the compiz packages not being installed from the first place, or the Gnome desktop for not being able to fall back on metacity. Metacity seems to have nothing to do with it, since it's compiz that's not starting. -- metacity crashes on login - no window manager https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/559111 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
