Package: compiz Version: 0.7.6-7 Severity: important I begin using Compiz by running "compiz --replace" and that works well. To continue using it, I save my current session via the Gnome session applet. However, the session file stores references to compiz.real instead of compiz along with all of the command line arguments.
Normally this would be okay, since the session file properly includes the --indirect-rendering argument. Unfortunately, without the compiz script setting the LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT environment variable, compiz will not start when Gnome does. It tries and fails several times until I am left without a window manager. I can then re-run "compiz --replace" in a terminal window (which was also saved with the session) and get back to a usable desktop. I'm not sure what the solution is since gnome-session has no way of knowing that it should save calls to compiz instead of compiz.real. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages compiz depends on: ii compiz-core 0.7.6-7 OpenGL window and compositing mana ii compiz-gnome 0.7.6-7 OpenGL window and compositing mana ii compiz-gtk 0.7.6-7 OpenGL window and compositing mana ii compiz-plugins 0.7.6-7 OpenGL window and compositing mana compiz recommends no packages.
