[desktop-discuss] 3D Desktop : Compiz fusion for Solaris x86

[Geoffrey Kransdorf]

I installed the precompiled Emerald packages under Erwann's Compiz Fusion 0.5.2 package.  It runs very well and looks great, but it seems to die every night. Windows are bare, with no decorations at all.  I can't restart it without dropping out of Compiz first (to Metacity) and restarting Compiz too.  Fortunately, this is fairly painless (I don't need to log out and don't lose any work), but it's not as stable as I would prefer.

It may be that Xscreensaver (which runs overnight) has something to do with the crash.  There's no log file or error messages that I can see, so I'm not sure.

I hope it gets more stable; I really like some of the themes.
