If nVidia, you might have to add: Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" in the screen section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf In any event, google on: <<a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&complete=0&q=ubuntu+%2Bno+window+decorations&btnG=Search" target="_blank">http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&complete=0&q=ubuntu+%2Bno+window+decorations&btnG=Search</a>> for possible solutions. But given that you are using a non-standard windows manager (FVWM) perhaps you might be better off checking with <a href="http://www.fvwm.org/" target="_blank">http://www.fvwm.org/</a> instead? -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div> Yo! \o I don't know if you are using one or other but... <pre style="font-family: trebuchet ms,sans-serif;">gtk-window-decorator --replace kde-window-decorator --replace emerald --replace paste wich you like in your session start app... cheers </pre> -- Marlon Valério ┌────────────┐ T0ddy Stone Brains └────────────┘
