    Nope. I added a nvidia 6600 graphic card, now it works.

    Re: Compiz-Check -- no more "Desktop effects could not be enabled"

    I'm having the same problem... Compiz was working perfectly, but then one morning I turn on my laptop and it's suddenly not working. I haven't installed anything of note - I wonder if one of the package upgrades has caused the problem.

    I'm using the nVidia Linux drivers. I've tried reinstalling them, but all to no avail.

    @kungfoofool did you just recently update xserver-xorg-core and xserver-common? i'm running into the similar situation as you.

    thanks,
