Description of problem: When Preferences/Plugin List/Automatic plugin sorting is enabled, ccsm orders plugins as follows; decoration move workarounds regex minimize place wobbly zoom dbus resize core png fade cube switcher expo rotate scale The result of this order is that when attempting to open a new window, whole screen "blinks", and new window does not open. Windows that were already open before enabling desktop effects remain open. Order that works is as follows; core glib gconf dbus png svg video screenshot decoration clone place fade minimize move resize switcher scale plane workarounds regex wobbly zoom cube expo rotate showdesktop Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.7.2-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable desktop effects 2. Launch ccsm 3. In Preferences/Plugin List, enable "Automatic plugin sorting" (if it is not already enabled, it is by default) 4. Activate or deactivate any plugin to trigger ccsm to rewrite gconf key "/apps/compiz/general/allscreens/options/active_plugins" Actual results: Plugins are ordered incorrectly, causing failure to open new windows and screen "blink" when attempting to do so. Expected results: Plugins should be ordered correctly, new windows should open, screen should not "blink". Additional info: Disabling "Automatic plugin sorting" allows existing plugin order to be maintained.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
