Re: Desktop effects disable problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It brings up a window with a "Enable Desktop Effects" button and two
check boxes below that

If I remove "yum remove compiz-gnome" the problem goes away. But If I
reinstall and bring up that same menu It does not allow me to disable
it.
If I reboot after reinstalling "yum install compiz-gnome" the blank
screen comes back....... Is there a way to revert this desktop effects
setting????
