Sid

Used an etch net install to get a core system (cus i had it laying around) but then apt-get dist upgraded to sid.

Compiled the latest kernel from source for laptop and desktop

Made the mistake of doing it on the "server/nas" machine (its a p3 500 so i could be waiting a while)

Re: Debain linux

I would remove all installed packages of compiz, clean things up, and give it another go.

Quote:
aptitude purge compiz-fusion*
aptitude clean
Then
Quote:
aptitude update
aptitude install compiz-fusion-gnome
That is if you are using Gnome (I prefer aptitude to apt-get)

Re: Debain linux

Sorry, from your post you said there was a dependency issue with the gtk libraries ?

Or have I read this wrong ?

Quote:
The following packages have unmet dependencies.
compiz-plugins: Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.12.0) but 2.10.13-1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

I did but thats sorted now i think

Still get a white screen when trying to start compiz on my laptop though.
desktop starts it but I'm not entirely sure how to start it properly as I lose all my window titles if i type compiz --replace
