I can confirm this on Feisty as well! It's very annoying since I've got to wait 2 minutes for using startup apps like the network-manager applet or Avant Window Navigator (very useful together with Compiz).
@Sebastien: I think you should mark this at least as Medium importance, since all I've done is enable Desktop Effects, install the gnome-compiz- manager package (available on the Universe repo) and click on the "Save the current session" button. Marking this bug as Confirmed. ** Changed in: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed -- startup programs delayed for 2 minutes with compiz/beryl enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78566 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
