Compiz-Fusion is awesome and kool. The only problem im having is that when i load up compiz-fusion in terminal with compiz --replace it works fine. When i want to switch back to KDE i start another session and type Kwin --replace. This works but as soon as i close the terminal the system freezes after a few seconds. Also cant u close the terminal when you're running compiz-fusion? Evreytime i close it when its running, my window decorations just dissapear. What could be wrong?

Try appending your commands with & at the end of it so it gets it's own PID, and not halted which happens when you close the terminal. So using your example, type: compiz --replace & or kwin --replace &

This worked somehow but the window decoration still didnt show up and my keyboard wasnt working. I could still launch programs and other stuff. Could this be a bug?
