Try this:
Locate .xinitrc in /root (it is a hidden file) and replace:
"emerald --replace" (without quotes)
with:
"gtk-window-decorator --replace &" (without quotes)
at the "start compiz" section:
It should look like this finally:
#start compiz
if [[ "$CURRENTWM" != "jwm" && "$CURRENTWM" != "icewm" && "$CURRENTWM" != "openbox" && "$CURRENTWM" != "startfluxbox" ]];then
if [[ `which compiz` != "" ]];then LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 compiz --replace --indirect-rendering --sm-disable ccp gtk-window-decorator --replace &
sleep 3
fi
fi
instead of:
#start compiz
if [[ "$CURRENTWM" != "jwm" && "$CURRENTWM" != "icewm" && "$CURRENTWM" != "openbox" && "$CURRENTWM" != "startfluxbox" ]];then
if [[ `which compiz` != "" ]];then LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 compiz --replace --indirect-rendering --sm-disable ccp emerald --replace &
sleep 3
fi
fi
Hope this helps.
Cheers.
Thanks for taking the interest in a linux noobs problem i tried this on in Virtual box on the new 515 but i dont think compiz works in VM. only get a white screen. I will try it when i get home. Thanks again Smil99. and thanks to all others for making this awesome OS
