fusion-icon, improper start <Solved>

proxima_centauri · 2009-01-30 16:27:23

Hello all,

I've had this problem for a while, but it's not that big, just a little annoying.
Whenever I start fusion-icon (either as a startup entry, or after start-up) it loads incorrectly as my metacity window borders disappear and there are no compiz-effects.
I have to hit "Reload Window Manager" on the fusion-icon properties everytime I start it up.

Any idea's as to why this is (it used to start up fine a couple weeks ago), perhaps some setting I messed up?

Hi,

there is a chapter in the wiki about missing window decoration when fusion-icon is started. Maybe it helps you: Link

Thanks for the response, but I already tried that;
When I reinstalled with ext4, originally the window border wouldn't even start after hitting reload. I followed the instructions in the wiki, and things seem to be working like I said, but I still have to hit "reload window manager" every time I start compiz.

You enabled metacity's composite extension? If so, try disabling it in gconf-editor.

Hmmm, I coulda swore that wasn't it, because I only learned about metacity compositing (and enabled it) after fusion-icon started acting up
However, it seems to work at least switching from metacity to compiz from the icon with metacity compositing off.
I'm gonna reboot and start fusion-icon at start up just to make sure.
Cheers

Yup that was it, glad you brought it up since i was *convinced* it wasn't that.
