Listmates, Compiz Fusion works fine on my laptop with kde-unstable when started with FusionIcon, but I cannot configure the control center setting of: Personal -> Default Applications -> Window Manager -> Use a different window manager: Compiz custom (create wrapper script..... or Compiz The error message says the window manager failed to start reverting to kwin... Now compiz runs just fine on kde 4.3 (4.2.95-1) when started with FusionIcon, so it isn't a hardware/xorg issue. My question: "is this a kde or archlinux issue?" -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
