Making Compiz on Ubuntu 9.04 Work in X3100 Display Chips
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:
- Edit /usr/bin/compiz file
$ sudo vi /usr/bin/compiz - Go to line 69 (in vi, just do “
:69” and press enter) - 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”!!
