[Bug 407557] [NEW] compiz not loaded on startup

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I installed Ubuntu Jaunty on my HP 6735s amd64 and needed to run the ATI
installer for my Radeon HD3200 correct display driver... anyway. Few
days ago it happens that when starting up and login, Compiz don't start
and i have no decoration borders on windows and this is very very very
annoying.... I also noticed that if i add an entry in "startup
applications" to run "compiz --replace" and activate it, it won't work
either. The only thing i can do is to right-click in fusion icon and
select "reload window manager". I ran the ATI installer again, because
the driver stop working since las kernel update (display drivers shoulw
compile themselves automatically when new kernel is installed...) and
the bug persist. Other thing may be related to this is that Gnome-Do is
not loading at startup too, and i check the box "start automatically on
login"...

One final comment to us to think about is that this type of problems
with "display" and "drivers" makes people run away from Ubuntu and may
be compiz is not the right choice for the default window manager since
it can't take a kernel update or can't load itself on startup, it's like
BSOD in Windows... anyway i'm too used to compiz flexibility and plugins
that makes my work easier and i hope compiz become more and more stable
as the time goes by.

any ideas?

tell me how can i help...

Best Regards.
