    Appreacnce effect change automatically from extra effect to no effect

    Hi !

    I have upgraded to 10.4 and and after try to install mac look in ubuntu.

    My screen start flickering, I found it this due to in system => preference => appearance => effect become no effect automatically (as each and every time I select extra effect)
    After some time.

    for changing this setting i need to turn off the computer and restart then after i can do it i.e. change effect to extra effect.

    Its done after following installation

    Thanks,

    Gitesh

    I think there's a problem with the drivers you're using. Could you go to System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers, and remove any which are active (have a green circle)



    Then restart your PC.

    Now go back to Hardware Drivers and activate the [recommended] driver.

    Restart the PC again.

    Then re-enable System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Effect.

    Netbook Edition doesn't use compiz, so no extra desktop effects. If you want desktop effects, at login you might have to change the session to regular ubuntu, not ubuntu netbook edition.

    I don't understand? A fresh install of UNE doesn't contain compiz. Even if you tried to use it, I think the netbook interface won't use it which is why it resets every time you reboot.
