the following did the trick: i wrote a delay-script for starting up compiz. delayed for 10sec. since than gconf2 is quiet, behaving nomal.
1) system>preferences>appearance>visual effects> set to "none" 2) open terminal and do: $ sudo gedit /home/where/ever/compizdelay.sh paste this text and save: #!/bin/bash sleep 10 compiz --loose-binding --replace & emerald --replace & exit 0 3) now we need to make it executable: $ sudo chmod +x /home/where/ever/compizdelay.sh 4) and then under system>preferences>sessions> press "add" and browse to where that new script is. test and reboot and voila, works,,, if not try to play with the "sleep ..." setting in the script, perhaps on your maschine it needs to sleep longer -- CPU always 100% CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293535 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
