Hi,

Doing nothing is not a solution.

Either everything needs to work together or something needs to be
changed.

There are four possible outcomes to this debacle:

1. Do nothing and:

a) ...ignore the problem because fixing it would be too hard.
b) ...blame someone else (problem with drivers etc)

2. If the Vino server is not going to work with Desktop Effects enabled,
there should be a notification when the user enables the Remote Desktop
feature telling them that it won't work unless Desktop Effects is
disabled.

3. Add a script to the Lock Screen command that shuts off Compiz Fusion
and replaces it with Metacity (something like export DISPLAY=:0.0 ;
killall -9 compiz.real ; metacity --replace ) -- then add a script to
the Unlock Screen command that turns Compiz Fusion back on.

4. Replace Vino with a more useful remote desktop solution.

---

Please pick one of two through four.
