Hi,
First, here's some background:
Ubuntu 12.04 64bit, graphics card: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Whistler [AMD Radeon HD 6600M Series] (output from lspci | grep VGA)
My whole issue stemmed from trying to give different workspaces different backgrounds.
I can't enable visual effects, I'm using lucid (10,04), my card is intel GM965/GL960, when i run
compiz --replace
it come back with
compiz (core) - Error: Screen 0 on display ":0.0" already has a window manager; try using the --replace option to replace the current window manager.
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0
compiz was running good before I installed com
I am running ubuntu 12.04
Each time i disable my compiz (for more power)
Code:
metacity --replace
On the left side of my screen it will appear a black square that will be over any application/desktop(has like a topmost function)
If i re enable compiz
Code:
compiz --replace
The problem dissapears
Any sollution for the problem? Thanks in advanced
I read on line to check if your compiz is running correctly you type compiz --replace. After it started, my screen flashed then disapeered than came back, and here is what the terminal is saying.
Hello all. I am a new convert to #! & am loving it. I used to run Linux Mint\Ubuntu until I found #!. I have #! Statler XFCE running on my Acer Aspire One NAV50. I am trying to figure out how to get Compiz to run with XFCE. I have Compiz installed & I am not sure I set it to start right.

I've heard that Lubuntu consumes less resources than Ubuntu. Is it because of the fact that Lubuntu uses different desktop environment and window manager?
If so, would it be equivalent to install lubuntu-desktop on top of Ubuntu rather than doing a fresh install?
Hi! I have installed gnome 2 desktop on my lubuntu 11.04 and compiz is not working. My default display manager is lxdm. Should I install gdm for compiz to work?
Hello, So every time I try to change the compiz profile, it crashes and breaks my desktop. I then have to either unity --reset, or compiz --replace for it to work again.
I have ubuntu 12.04 with kernal 35, and compiz 0.9.7.9
Video Card is a ATI Radeon HD5000 series, using the ATI Radeon driver for ubuntu.
Does anyone know how to fix the bugs in compiz? Or have a different solution?
