Same here, I used to set screen brightness with something like dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.compiz /org/freedesktop/compiz-1/obs/screen0/brightness_values org.freedesktop.compiz.set array:int32:80
that has no effect now. Also the examples at http://wiki.compiz.org/Plugins/Dbus have no effect or error out. For example $ python compiz-send.py vpswitch Traceback (most recent call last): File "compiz-send.py", line 82, in <module> print '\n'.join(obj.list()) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/dbus/proxies.py", line 68, in __call__ return self._proxy_method(*args, **keywords) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/dbus/proxies.py", line 140, in __call__ **keywords) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/dbus/connection.py", line 630, in call_blocking message, timeout) dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "list" with signature "" on interface "org.freedesktop.compiz" doesn't exist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/749084 Title: Dbus-Plugin of compiz not working -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
