Xfce Compiz doesn't start on first login


I installed Xfce4, Compiz and lxdm on my desktop computer running openSUSE 12.1. To start Compiz as the default WM I edited ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-session.xml and set

<property name="Client0_Command" type="array">
    <value type="string" value="compiz"/>
    <value type="string" value="ccp"/>
</property>

But when I login the first time after booting nothing happens. I have to relogin or start compiz via console and everything is fine. When I use the --debug flag with Compiz and log the output I always (even if the start fails) get

compiz (core) - Debug: Could not stat() file /home/peep/.compiz-1/plugins/libcore.so :   No such file or directory

By the way, xfwm4 runs without any problems and compiz runs under LXDE, too.


Solution

  • It's working now. I just created a new user, configured the whole thing and somehow it worked. :weird:
