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???? On Tue, Jan 25, 2011 at 15:35, Aaron Konstam <akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Tue, 2011-01-25 at 10:27 -0600, Daniel J.
