Description Eric Frederich 2009-07-17 12:46:37 UTC

CCSM won't save settings made if you're using libcompizconfig-0.8.2-r2.
0.8.2-r2 will save messed up files in ~/.config/compiz/compizconfig

Reverting to 0.8.2 solves this problem.

See http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-779093.html

Suggest removing or masking 0.8.2-r2 making 0.8.2 the latest one available.


Reproducible: Always

Woouah !!!
I just added dbus and hald USE in my make.conf and since the rebuild no ccsm was working, thank to this post it works again :-)

I can confirm this happening. Upgrading to 0.8.2-r2 made window decorations disappear and upon further inspection, ccsm didn't have any settings enabled and any changes weren't saved. I had to downgrade to 0.8.2 as suggested in this bug report and re-configure everything in ccsm. Not cool.

(running ~amd64 and nvidia kernel module in xorg)

Comment 3 Eric Frederich 2009-07-19 04:52:19 UTC

Reported this bug from my amd64 machine but now had the same problem with my x86 machine.  Downgrading to 0.8.2 fixed it there as well.

Comment 4 Billy DeVincentis 2009-07-20 21:27:27 UTC

Same problem here, downgrades cures the ailment!!

I believe this is the same bug as 278132.

This was fixed some time ago and 0.8.2* is no longer in the tree.
