I have a feeling my no autostart problem is related to the following tests in compiz-manager. Is there a way I can "step" through the script on openSuSE 10.3 while it is running to find out where the script dies? Or do I basically have to insert error returns throughout the script to capture that info? ---- # if we run under Xgl, we can skip some tests here if ! check_xgl; then # if vesa or vga are in use, do not even try glxinfo (LP#119341) if ! running_under_whitelisted_driver || have_blacklisted_pciid; then abort_with_fallback_wm fi # check if we have the required bits to run compiz and if not, # fallback if ! check_tfp || ! check_npot_texture || ! check_composite || ! check_texture_size; then abort_with_fallback_wm fi if check_nvidia && ! check_nvidia_memory; then abort_with_fallback_wm fi if ! check_fbconfig; then abort_with_fallback_wm fi fi -- David C.

Please give a thorough reading to followin and use the method that works for you: http://en.opensuse.org/Compiz_Fusion You can put any of the following commands in autostart 1. compiz --replace ccp& 2. compiz --replace glib gconf& 3. compiz-manager (if you have it installed) 4. fusion-icon& 5. Your own script http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/ and google for compiz autostart scripts. Someone already posted reply to your issue with the script that works for him, so I do not quite understand what is the confusion. Cheers -J PS: Please do not cross post, it confuses people who use search engines for solutions and wastes unnecessary bandwidth.
