Description Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail 2007-11-12 04:24:35 UTC
Description
compiz/libccp.so  (provided by libcompizconfig), is another configuration
backend for compiz. It allows desktop-neutral configuration in flat file and
also serves as an abstraction layer for the desktop-specific gconf and kconfig
backend. 

CCSM, a configurator for the compiz-fusion project, requires compiz to be loaded
with ccp for it to be Actually JustWorks(tm). 

Current gnome-wm defaults will load compiz with glib/gconf. If possible, can
gnome-wm be patched so that it will load compiz using ccp whenever libccp.so
exist (similar with the approach of the launcher script from compiz-manager
package)??. Or maybe an entry at gconf which defines what plugin to load with
compiz from gnome-wm.

Thank you

I'm going to defer this to Kristian.  Whatever he things we should do I'll do.

This comes up now and then - here's what we should do:
