I can choose to enable/disable various plugins ccsm offers me, through its interface. But that's pretty much it. I can see nothing that comes out from my fiddling in ccsm. Bupkis. Nothing happens as a result of me flipping the various knobs in ccsm. I enable, disable various plugins. Pushing the key sequence that those plugins seem to be using results in nothing, zilch. The only thing that works for me are the two checkmarks in the "Desktop Effects" preferences dialog. I can make the windows wobble, and get the cube effect when flipping through workspaces. But nothing in ccsm proper apparently has any effect for me. I ran ccsm from a terminal window, in case in blurts something to standard error, but nothing comes out, it just takes my settings, and, nothing happens. It's probably that the freshly-minted noveau driver doesn't yet implement some key piece of functionality ccsm needs, but no error gets reported. But maybe I've missed some required step somewhere along the way.Not sure, but I believe this is a configuration issue. If windows do wobble and the cube effect works, then nouveau driver seems to be doing its job right. I think this is a Gnome thing, starting compiz in a custom manner and ignoring ccsm settings. Try to disable completely desktop effects in Gnome, install fusion-icon, and use that to start compiz. Hopefully then it will respect ccsm settings. HTH, :-)
Thanks. Looks like starting Compiz using the fusion icon is the trick. Some of the ccsm settings still do not appear to do something -- "3D Windows" doesn't seem to do anything when I CTRL-ALT-Down and flip desktops, but others do, the water effect and the paint fire effect, so looks like it's working.
Still experimenting…
