** Description changed: Binary package hint: compiz-core compiz shows no decorations around windows when effects are set to normal. Decorations are shown normally when effects are set to none. Even though decorations are not shown ps reveals that compiz and compiz.real are running. compiz-core version is: 1:0.8.2-0ubuntu2 Compiz worked fine with normal effects enabled by default when booting a live 9.04 alpha5. Regression must have been introduced on an update after alpha5 release. Recent updates apparently changed the name of compiz packages. At present I have these packages: pn compiz ii compiz-core 1:0.8.2-0ubuntu2 un compiz-extra <none> ii compiz-fusion-plu 0.8.2-0ubuntu1 ii compiz-fusion-plu 0.8.2-0ubuntu1 rc compiz-gnome 1:0.7.9+git200902 un compiz-gtk <none> ii compiz-plugins 1:0.8.2-0ubuntu2 ii compiz-wrapper 1:0.8.2-0ubuntu2 pn compizconfig-back <none> rc compizconfig-sett 0.7.8-0ubuntu3 All packages are updates as 10 Mar 1PM except network-manager which is 0.7.1~rc1+20090220-0ubuntu1 My graphic card is a: 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility U1 01:05.0 0300: 1002:4336 with 128MB shared memory set from bios. Direct rendering appears to work fine, tested with warzone2100. I include dmesg.txt Xorg.0.log glxinfo.txt xvinfo.txt compiz.txt Update: I installed the package compiz, which also installed as requirements the packages: compiz-gnome compizconfig-backend-gconf libcompizconfig0 - Now when I try to set the effects to 'normal', it starts scanning for - hardware devices, then I get the screen going black with all the windows - being 'reset', then I got a popup window saying 'unable to enable - effects'. No more windows with missing borders, but the effects get set - to 'none'. + Now when I try to set the effects to 'normal', it starts scanning for hardware devices, then I get the screen going black with all the windows being 'reset', then I got a popup window saying 'unable to enable effects'.
