It should be possible to enable "Visual Effects" in the "Appearence Preferences" dialogue with any driver installed that supports compiz, not just nvidia-glx-new (in the case of Nvidia). I've also read in the german ubuntuusers forum that there is the same problem if the proprietary Nvidia driver is installed manually.
And jockey should not automatically remove the nvidia-glx driver and install nvidia-glx-new when trying to enable Visual Effects. Especially not without asking the user. -- [Hardy] jockey-gtk prevents activation of "Visual Effects" with nvidia-glx https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202802 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
