I seldom do this.  In fact, I never did it before.

Making Compiz on Ubuntu 9.04 Work in X3100 Display Chips

Tuesday, April 28th, 2009

Finally I backed up all my files and installed Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope).  When my flashy new
system boot up, I tried to set my “Visual Effect” to “Extra” but it keeps failing.

After a little bit of googling, I found a solution on Ubuntu Forum which resolve the problem by:

  1.  Edit /usr/bin/compiz file
    $ sudo vi /usr/bin/compiz
  2. Go to line 69 (in vi, just do “:69” and press enter)
  3. Comment out line 69, by putting a “#” sign in front of the line.

Then you can logout the current user and login.  You should now be able to set your “Visual Effect”!!
