I'm having a strange problem in compiz fusion!!
When I do this command: LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true compiz --replace ccp && emerald &

no error appears, but the screen becomes white! I just can see white!! hehe
If I put the mouse at the upper-right corner, the background becomes light gray and some white rectangles with the icons of windows open appers. I can rotate the cube too, but is always white!!

What should I do to correct this??

I have a ATI graphic board and I used this how-to: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...645/page2.html

try running :

Code:

compiz-manager

instead. I had the exact same problem as you and when I used compiz-manager, everything was good. Also, you can script it and make it start automatically.

good luck,

The problem was my 3D acceleration now it works well, but the window bar with the minimize, maximize and close, don't appears!!

What should I do to put this bar in my windows??

rabbit2345 · 03-13-2008, 09:23 PM

is the bar still there without the 3D acceleration?

With or without 3D acceleration, It don't have the bar with compiz running!!But without compiz don't run!!
