Hello Mirco, well, I had more time and I did compile it. I used the revision r 894 of unity from lp, but it still does not work as it should. It stays the same.
I followed the INSTALL file and build unity into /opt/unity. I added the lines to .bashrc. I started compiz-unity-setup-env, I restarted compiz (by the way, should not it be compiz --replace ccp & rather then compiz --replace cpp & as written in the INSTALL file? ), but when I attached the external monitor, the unity interface did not addopt to external monitor size. How can I be sure I am running the compiled version of unity? This seems that I am rather still running the distribution version of unity: tomas@Ubuntu-Natty:~$ ps aux |grep unity tomas 21579 0.1 1.0 31000 10464 ? Sl 02:29 0:01 /usr/bin/unity-window-decorator tomas 21582 0.8 1.5 96516 15296 ? Sl 02:29 0:06 /usr/lib/unity/unity-panel-service tomas 22532 0.0 0.0 5192 748 pts/0 S+ 02:41 0:00 grep --color=auto unity tomas@Ubuntu-Natty:~$ Any hints?
