I have a problem with a new fresh 8.04 install with compiz.

"compiz --replace"


$ compiz --replace

/usr/bin/compiz.real (video) - Warn: No 8 bit GLX pixmap format, disabling YV12 image format
GConf backend: There is an unsupported value at path /apps/compiz/plugins/scale/allscreens/options/initiate_edge. Settings from this path won't be read. Try to remove that value so that operation can continue properly.

I'm not entirely sure what i should be poking about here to get it to work properly.. Any ideas?

What are your systems specs, including your graphics card?

Specs:

Athlon 2800+ (32bit)
2Gb 3200 RAM
Nvidia Gforce FX5700 Ultra
Creative X-Fi

Restricted drivers installed and enabled.
Brand new 8.04 install, compiz worked earlier with 7.10.
The path/file it says to remove a value from isn't there, which is strange..

Any ideas?
