I guess I'll answer your question since haven't seen anyone else answering it. simple
Code: Select all
alt-f2
then type
Code: Select all
compiz --replace
but then sometimes it refuses to work after you have logged out then you will have to add it to startup applications by doing this: left click on the right corner and look for startup applications then add a new startup app by clicking on add then put this in the first row
Code: Select all
compiz
this in the second row
Code: Select all
/usr/bin/compiz or compiz --replace (your choice) because both work
finally this in the last row
Code: Select all
compiz startup
but compiz will only work if your video card's drivers allow it to work.

You all are going to laghf well may be not... but it turns out it works fin just no one ever told me where the setting was....

you seem to need to right clink on the BLUE FUSION icon, and set window manager to "compiz" orwhat ever you want... I knew there had to be some enable setting some where, as all these dif enviroments can not run at the same time....

I also finaly noticed the one on the log in screen to :)

Nice solution though I did not see it.... but that is what i was looking for and could not find... was basicaly asking where is the on switch and we were looking at the eltrical grid....
