Hallo
After using Ubuntu for a while, which worked perfectly i wanted to try out kubuntu again.
I installed kubuntu 10.10 and updated to kde 4.5.3 per ppa. I cant get compiz to work nice with kde.I tried compiz both 0.8.6 and 0.9.2 but none of them worked right. i get flashy display, cant click anything, border missing. i dont see anyone having the same problem.I have nvidia driver installed.

thanks

You'll also have to install a window decorator for compiz like emerald, and set compiz through compizconfig-settings-manager to use emerald for the window decorations.

...you can install emerald,but you do not have to,the default kde-window-decorator should work.Have you set the KDE Compatibility
in ccsm ?

I did checked KDE-Compability. still didnt work, so i am using kwin compisition for now.

I switched to Graphicsystem to raster for now, kwin is faster than default but still i dont get the compiz feeling.

thanks
