[Bug 767095] Re: 1 pixel icons in notification-area-applet when compiz is the windows manager

 

Well, I haved success. I compiled all compiz packages from Maverick in
Natty.

THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE - PLEASE GIVE ME FEEDBACK IN PRIVATE
NOTE THAT ***UNITY WILL BREAK***   

0. Set Ubuntu classic as your session in GDM
1. Remove all packages related to compiz via synaptic (included libdecoration0, emerald, compizconfig etc)
2. Remove all unity related packages , note ubuntu-desktop will be removed after the step 1, don't worry.
3. Remove autoremovable packages (you can use synaptic)
4. add my PPA: ppa:guido-iodice/compiz-0.8.6-natty
5. update 
6. install compiz, compiz-core, compiz-fusion-plugins-main, compiz-fusion-plugins-extra, compiz-fusion-plugins-unsupported (optional), compiz-gnome, compiz-plugins, compizconfig-backend-gconf, compizconfig-settings-manager, libcompizconfig0, libdecoration0, python-compizconfig, and, if you want, simple-ccsm ::: note, some of this packages are dependencies so they will be selected when you select the main package.
7. login/log out

It is very simple, but be care!!!
