Great!Thanks!Huge thanks!!!I had sex with compiz for about 3 hours and then i found this post and...Voila!Everything works fine!By the way,as my videocard has only 64MB of vram(less than 128 recommended) i turned Triple Buffer to &#39;false&#39;,and everything is still ok.But what is the best is that windows borders are here now!Thanks!

Hi there, thanks for the howto.<BR/><BR/>I have a fresh Debian etch install, and following your steps I installed compiz, but whenever I start it with 'compiz --replace --fast-filter', windows lose their decorations, and that's it.<BR/><BR/>I've already tried removing the compiz directory under .gconf, without success. Any ideas?

Thank you very much! I managed to install everything smooth and clean on first attempt :)<BR/>Compiz looks sooo sweet ^^

You can also check my blog entry which simply tells you about xorg.conf entries you need to create or change.<BR/><BR/>I am in process of creating a configuration wizard for Compiz.<BR/><BR/><BR/>You can check it here.<BR/>http://blog.anantshri.info/2007/07/20/compiz-up-and-running-in-debian/

Hi Jørgen,<BR/><BR/>Thanks a lot for that great fix. As I am not that much of a KDE user, I didn't spend too much time tweaking the Compiz config for it. Using the "kde-window-decorator" seems to be the way to go.<BR/><BR/>Hugues

Thanks for the tutorial! My only problem was, using kde, I lost my window decorations and to get them back I had to run 'kde-window-decorator'. Perhaps it would be better to change 'gnome-window-decorator' to 'kde-window-decorator' in the exec line of the kde autostart file?

Hi Cycle,<BR/><BR/>You are right. I changed to match the tutorial on Beryl. Both simpler and faster that way.<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/><BR/>Hugues

The instructions for replacing xfwm4 with compiz in xfce should be simplified to the same as the beryl instructions, i.e. just change the xfwm4 entry in xfce4-session.rc to compiz (instead of commenting out the entry and adding compiz.desktop to the autostart menu). Much simpler and works like a charm for me.

Hello James,<BR/><BR/>I can only suggest that you revise all the steps you did to install & configure <I>Compiz</I>.<BR/><BR/>First, make sure the NVIDIA drivers are properly installed.<BR/><BR/>Second, ensure that your <B>/etc/X11/xorg.conf</B> file is exactly like it should be.<BR/><BR/>Finally, you can install <I>Compiz</I> (or <I>Beryl</I> if you prefer).<BR/><BR/>If you wish to get
