Open animations are applied to firefox menus since the upgrade to 0.6.0. Apparently fixed in latest git. The bug on their bugzilla is here: http://bugs.opencompositing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431
This patch is already part of the 0.6.0 release and therefor included in the current package.
Also what was the last version that worked for you? (full rpm version please)
Whatever the previous 0.5.2 based one was, probably compiz-fusion-0.5.2-10.09b700.fc8. Are you saying you're not having the problem? I have it with both intel and nvidia hardware.
This build should fix it: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=22594 Please test it and report back.
With this version installed, compiz won't run at all for me. Does it for you? I'm x86_64 with intel hardware. continuity> compiz --replace --ignore-desktop-hints glib gconf compiz (core) - Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0 compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0 continuity> If I revert to the previous version currently in the repos and restart the X server, it works fine. It doesn't seem to make much sense bit that's what happens.
This is weird, does it also happen when you unload the workarounds plugin?
also try http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=217521 once finshed building.
The above failed, please try this one: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=217545 Are you sure that the new build is causing this? This looks completely unrelated to the plugins. Can you reproduce it?
The compiz-fusion-0.6.0-5.fc8 build that completed this morning works correctly and seems to fix the bug for me. This is the one I have installed: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=22642
Ok, thx for the report and the quick testing. The package has been tagged for f8-final and should hit rawhide soon.
