Ubuntu 9.10<br>Linux 2.6.31-20-generic<br>Gnome 2.28.1<br>Compiz 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu2.1<br>Nautilus 1:2.28.1-0ubuntu3<br><br><br>EXPECTED: Launch of File Manager (trash can, and desktop).<br><br>ACTUAL: File Manager shows wait pointer for awhile, but then disappears; trash can shows 'maximize' framing animation, but no content; desktop not showing files stored in Desktop directory.<br>
<br>DIAG: This began when I used Simple CompizConfig Settings Manager to change open window animation from Glide 2 to Glide 3 which froze desktop basically when any window was opened [resolved by setting appearance visual effects to None].<br>
<br>To address this problem, renamed following files to _OLD extension and restarting. Didn't make any apparent change.<br><br> ~/.cache/compizconfig<br> ~/.compiz<br>
