Emerald help.

[nickolaus123]

I have installed emerald and I am only able to get it to work via terminal. Could someone shine a little light on this for me?

[some-guy]

to make it auto start on kde run
cat << EOF >~/.kde/Autostart/emerald.sh
#!/bin/bash
exec emerald --replace
EOF
chmod +x ~/.kde/Autostart/emerald.sh

on gnome add emerald --replace to your session list

Or add emerald --replace to the Command field of the decoraton plugin in ccsm, and then compiz will (or at least should) autostart it.

Or, if you use Fusion-Icon, it can automatically set the option mentioned by b0le above. :)
