In the interest of feature-parity, the relevant question to my mind is: can composited Metacity do everything that the default Compiz can? I'm not talking about what can be enabled with ccsm or simple-ccsm, but what can be enabled in Appearances -> Desktop Effects. If the simple transitions and wall and things that are available in "Normal" and "Extra" (on KDE at the moment, so unsure of phrasing) mode are available then yes, I would remove Compiz and let Metacity handle it. For the record: KWin does handle these things just fine from what I can tell. -- Mackenzie Morgan http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com apt-get moo -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
