This issue is rather important, because without the decoration bar, the minimize, maximize and close buttons become unavailable.
This happened eventually for a desktop PC with Ubuntu Hardy (8.04), running Compiz, but after reloading the Window Manager, using Compiz Fusion Icon the decoration was corrected. After network upgrading to Intrepid (8.10), no window decoration anymore, now it is not eventual anymore. However, changing to Metacity Window Manager (using Compiz Fusion Icon), the decoration reappears. The same for a HP dv6120 notebook. However, for Asus EeePC 12G (900) with a fresh installation of Easy Peasy (formerly Ubuntu eee), no problem. It is based on Ubuntu Netbook Remix from Canonical, Compiz is not included: Kalarm has worked fine. For the Asus netbook, it is not Compiz, but Netbook Remix that manages the windows. Today, the HP did not boot properly. After a recovery boot, running all recovery options, suddenly the decorations reappeared, but again, Compiz had not loaded! Unfortunately, the reason was the NVIDIA driver had been disabled during the recover. After enabling it and rebooting, it was a surprise to discover the window decoration gone again, but Compiz was there, loaded and running. Disabling the NVIDIA driver, the decoration was back over the Kalarm window but so was not Compiz: it had been gone! It is almost certain, the problem is between Compiz Window Manager and Kalarm, other KDE applications have not displayed (or should been said: have undisplayed?) the issue. This conclusion is further supported by the observation of the same problem in the other machine, but again only with Compiz Window Manager on. It must been said that small issues are happening with windows decoration of several other packages in Compiz, however they are still usable, contrary to Kalarm, where, let it be repeated, the minimize, maximize and close buttons become unavailable. The bottom line: problem between Compiz Window Manager and Kalarm, can anyone help us, please? ** Attachment added: "Kalarm without decoration bar" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24220475/kalarmnowindowdecoration2009.03.22.jpg -- Kalarm has no window decorations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293591 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdepim in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
