New update

[spektrum]

I have Ubuntu, And i just recieved new updates of compiz fusion from

deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy
deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/3v1deb feisty eyecandy

I know it's in alpha/beta or whatever. It worked perfect before, but now I get this error when starting it.

nothing works, compiz is running and seems like the wobbly effect is on but i cant move the windows and nothing else works.

Unfortunatly I understand that trevino's repo is currently broken. I believe they are working on it now.
You could try using Amaranth's gutsy backport repo on: http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=3153
Hope that helps.

PS. Thread titles need to be descriptive to help searching for information. For example this thread could have been something like: "Fusion broken after update from Trevino's Ubuntu Feisty Repo" or similar.
Thanks.

For me the "New update" erased all of my old settings, skydomes, cubecaps, etc...

After fixing all of my settings, I noticed 3 things that don't work now:


#1) The Screen Saver for the unofficial plug-ins doesn't work at all.

#2) All reflection settings look bad if you select a color for Ground color (far)...

...if you do use a color for that setting, there is a noticeable line where the color starts. It is very noticeable after an opacity setting of 5....and gets worse the more you raise the opacity level.

#3) If I unfold the cube with ctrl+alt+down...it gets stuck on the slider and won't go back to the desktop.


I'm sure these will be fixed in the next few updates.

Trevino has been away for a while, but is now back and working on the repo:
http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showpost.php?p=23290&postcount=49

You can wait for that, or check out the link i gave above, its up to you.
Either way, best of luck!

Well, for #3) I can switch desktops using the Shifter or regular "ctrl+alt+left/right", as for #2) it's not that important, and as for #1) I do miss my Screen Saver plug-in, but I can wait until they fix it because I'm sure it will just get better.

I guess I just posted to confirm that it was a strange update.

I bypass the errors by going to the CompizConfig Settings Manager, and set the Backend to "Flat-file Configuration Backend". It's under the "Perferences" link on the main page.
