Words by Eric Mesa [Thu, Apr 03, 2008 at 11:17:09PM -0400]: > I'm going nuts trying to keep compiz from running every time I launch > Gnome, KDE or XFCE. In Gnome, enable desktop effects is NOT set as > enabled. However in Gnome Compiz Preferences "Enable GL Desktop" is > checked. If I uncheck it, compiz is turned off for this session. If I > log out and log back in, it's checked again! I tried uninstalling all > of the compiz-related RPMs and then Gnome refused to go back to using > Metacity. I don't want it coming on all the time. I don't want it > coming on automatically in KDE and I ESPECIALLY don't want it coming on > in XFCE. If I'm using XFCE it means I want a low impact desktop. > > Yet not matter what I do, I'm not the master of my desktop. This is > annoying the heck out of me. And when I go into gconf-editor and go to > apps->gnome-session-rh for window_manager it says metacity, not compiz! > On gconf-editor disable apps->metacity->general->compositing_manager -- Jose Celestino ---------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.msversus.org/ ; http://techp.org/petition/show/1 http://www.vinc17.org/noswpat.en.html ---------------------------------------------------------------- "If you would have your slaves remain docile, teach them hymns." -- Ed Weathers ("The Empty Box")
