[Bug 374050] [NEW] strange compiz behaviour on jaunty

[Amr Hassan]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

I'm not really sure where's the problem. I have an intel graphics chip,
and running Jaunty with all the latest updates.

Upon logon, compositing is enabled and some desktop effects are enabled
like drop-shadow on windows, while others are not, like the application
switcher and minimize/maximize effects and the transparency on the
window decorator. They all seem to be enabled in ccsm however.

If I try to set Visual Effects to Normal from Appearance, It looks for a
hardware drive, flickers everything a few times then say that it's not
possible for me to enable desktop effects.

The only way that I can get my full desktop effects back is by reloading
the window manager twice from fusion-icon.

My graphics chip was blacklisted when I installed jaunty but now it's
not anymore, so back then I thought it was the reason for this odd
behaviour, I'm not even using the Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
option in xorg.conf.
