[SOLVED] compiz-icon error ...

[sh4d]

Hi,

CompComm works great by launching with this command :
[code:ae2bb]compiz --replace --indirect-rendering --sm-disable ccp &[/code:ae2bb]

But when i try to launch compiz-con, I've got this error message :

[code:ae2bb]yohann@yohann-desktop:~$ compiz-icon
/usr/bin/compiz.real
/usr/bin/compiz
/usr/bin/ccsm
/usr/bin/gtk-window-decorator
/usr/bin/emerald
/usr/bin/metacity
/usr/bin/kwin
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./compiz-icon.py", line 426, in <module>
set_active_decorator = configuration.get('decorator', 'set_active_decorator')
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/ConfigParser.py", line 520, in get
raise NoOptionError(option, section)
ConfigParser.NoOptionError: No option 'set_active_decorator' in section: 'decorator'
[/code:ae2bb]

Maybe somebody knows what's wrong there ?

Thx.

Look in /home/user/.compiz-icon/config.ini
and verify that you have.
[code:ebc15][decorator]
set_active_decorator = emerald
decorator_replace = --replace[/code:ebc15]

I'm not the original poster, but I have the same problem, and I do have those lines in my config.ini file. Seems to be KDE specific, as it works fine if I'm in gnome. I've opned up a bug report for it:

Thx Jupiter it works great now !

D'oh, my mistake, too. I said that I had the same problem as the original poster and, of course, it's a different problem entirely, discussed on another thread that I got confused with this one.
