KDE/Compiz

Kubuntu running w/ compiz fusion installed. I'm unable to get any of the effects working. (wobble, cube, etc...) I've enabled the settings, restarted, but nothing.

 

Got Emerald working at least?

 

its installed- didn't see much to play with in settings as i don't know of any theme repositories

 

ATI card?

Has it worked before?

Do you have ccsm installed? If not, do so.

 

Nvida 8600 GT

looking into ccsm, thanks

 

Once you install it, it will show up in your programs as advanced settings..."something" or another. Make sure the effects you want are enabled (checked).

 

in that case- i may already have it installed. its on the same menu as emerald, and when opened gives me 60 dif features to check/uncheck

 

and, were they?

 

What version of KDE are you using?

3.9 or 4.0?

Get Envy- it will install the 100+ drivers for the Nvidia card.

under "settings" i have a app called "advanced desktop effects settings"

 

Gutsy 7.1 KDE 3.5.5

 

no, I am asking if the effects are enabled.

Have you gone and removed the .compiz folder in your home directory and restarted X/KDE?

 

yes, the effects are enabled. I haven't removed the compiz folder, i'll give that a whirl.

 

I can't find a compiz file in root or in home

 

Its hidden.

 

Aisde from this, and what BOOMM suggested, it will have to wait till morning until I can get back with ya. Sleep calls.

Good luck!
