hi there, yesterday ive tried the new suse 10.3 and compiz fusion the first time. ive created following sep. session scripts (hope they are correct) to start the compiz-manager before kde inits.
the simple one, to start compiz and emerald.
#!/bin/sh
# to be safe, try to kill old running instances
killall compiz
killall emerald
# start compiz
DISPLAY=:0 compiz --replace ccp &
sleep 2
emerald &
# choose one of the following
DISPLAY=:0 startkde
and one for */xsessions

Name[de]=Compiz-Fusion
Path=
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false
TerminalOptions=
Type=Application
X-DCOP-ServiceType=
X-KDE-SubstituteUID=false
X-KDE-Username=
the problem is, that compiz doesnt use the settings ive made. this problem does not happen when i start it in a running kde-session. but emerald is working fine.
i am using compiz 0.54 and kde. maybe its a problem of my system, but i dont know (think so)
