Everything worked out of the box after an update to Lucid Lynx. I wanted to make the desktop look like the mac so I installed Avant Window Navigator, but that looked like crap.
I couldn't change the themes because I had to enable desktop effects. I checked the box in the appearance menu of the desktop effects without any result. No error message that said "can't enable desktop effects" and also no desktop effects. When I go back to the appearance menu it still have the "no desktop effects" button checked.
I reinstalled compiz without any result. I installed a previous version fro my video card ( Nvidia 9200m GS which is not blacklisted for compiz), without result. I reinstalled the latest driver and now when i start up the top bars of windows are not showing until I try to enable the desktop effects, then they show up, but still no desktop effects.
Any thoughts about this? :(
