Description of problem: If you've booted without desktop effects and then you enable effects - wobble and workspaces on a cube, then wobble works and if you drag a window off the screen you get the cube effect, but if you click the workspaces in the bottom right corner, you don't see the cube effect at all. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Full 2.6.22.1-41.fc7 release How reproducible: Boot without effects enabled. Enable it, and click the workspaces in the bottom right. Actual results: No cube Expected results: Cube behaviour
Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue.

OK I did what you asked for, files are attached. My xorg.conf file is completely default anyway, so nothing exciting there. For each of the log files, I started the server with desktop effects disabled, then enabled it, and clicking the workspaces at the bottom right did not cube-rotate. This used to work with the fedora 7 install from the install DVD. Present version doesn't seem to.
Compiz bug, not X server bug.
Should be fixed in compiz-0.5.2-4.0ec3ec.fc8.
I'm the original reporter of this bug, and I do not use compiz, but rather the fedora 7 default - metacity!! Thus I do not understand why this has been assigned to compiz and closed.
Someone in #fedora has now told me that activating desktop effects does use compiz, so that explains it. The things you learn.
