If you try to run compiz on DISPLAY=:0 while one is already running, it gives a message like: $ compiz compiz (core) - Error: Screen 0 on display ":0" already has a window manager; try using the --replace option to replace the current window manager.
That makes sense. However, if you launch Xephyr, and then run compiz with DISPLAY=:8 (that of xephyr), it ends up making the compiz that was running on :0 exit. This also happens if the window manager on :0 was metacity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/740972 Title: running compiz in Xephyr kills compiz -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
