Hi Sam, Yes the COMPIZ_CONFIG_PROFILE environment variable is still used, but if unset or the empty string compiz first checks GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID, which in quantal is currently set to 'this-is-deprecated'. If it is set, then it returns the section name as "gnome_session". Doesn't really matter though, it will default to Default.ini even if the section is missing, but as far as I can tell there isn't any code that reads an ini from /etc/compizconfig/ (and just dropping a Default.ini file in there and loading the gnome classic session only loads the "core" and "ccp" plugins).
I took a look at the natty package to see how it was handled there, and the code seems basically the same, so I don't think it would load an ini from /etc/compizconfig/ there either. The only difference I noticed was that /etc/compizconfig/config in natty looks like: [kde4_session] backend = kconfig4 integration = true plugin_list_autosort = true [kde_session] backend = kconfig integration = true plugin_list_autosort = true [gnome_session] backend = gconf integration = true plugin_list_autosort = true [general] backend = ini plugin_list_autosort = true [general_ubuntu] backend = gconf integration = true plugin_list_autosort = true profile = unity We only have the [general] and [general_ubuntu] sections in quantal (with the ubuntu section using gsettings now instead of gconf). We can't use gconf for gnome_session since that backend was dropped in the transition. I'd like to use gsettings but I can't figure out how to make it work since we would need to set defaults for the same key with different paths (or run a script when the user logs in checking if the key is set and then setting it, I don't really like that idea). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1036752 Title: [quantal] [regression] Gnome Classic has no compiz plugins loaded Status in Compiz: Invalid Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Test case new install from current or recent daily install gnome-session-fallback log in to gnome classic There will be absolutely no compiz plugins loaded whatsoever ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: gnome-session-fallback 3.5.5-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-10.10-generic 3.5.1 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-10-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.4-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Aug 14 12:55:47 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Alpha amd64 (20120813.1) PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gnome-session UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1036752/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
