| FWIW, i've discovered that sometimes my windows decorator still doesn't come up when I use the compiz-start I posted above. I found that if I put a 2 second sleep right after the line that starts the window decorator (emerald in my case), I don't have the problem anymore. This may be an emerald only issue, since it has a few known stability problems with compiz-fusion. But if you are still having problems, try putting a 'sleep 2' after the your windows decorator line. |

DaggyStyle, this worked for me:

as root modify this script:
| Code: | cat /usr/bin/compiz-start
# compiz-start script

# hacky autodetection of neccessary options for XGL/AIGLX/NVIDIA

# Hanno Boeck, http://www.hboeck.de/

if [ ! -x /usr/bin/glxinfo ]; then
echo "glxinfo not found, please install mesa-progs."
exit -1

GLX_RENDER=`glxinfo|grep -c "OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect"`
COMPIZ_OPTIONS="--replace"
if [ $GLX_WITH_DIRECT -eq 3 ]; then
if [ $GLX_RENDER -eq 0 ]; then
echo NVIDA detected
export __GL_YIELD="NOTHING"
else
echo XGL detected
fi
elif [ $GLX_WITH_INDIRECT -eq 3 ]; then

#fi
#
#compiz $COMPIZ_OPTIONS gconf move resize minimize place decoration wobbly fade cube rotate scale switcher zoom dbus
emerald --replace &
compiz --replace ccp --sm-disable |
logout, login, done! |
Edit:
Forgot to mention, you of course need to set up so compiz-start runs at login, I leave that as homework if you don't have that set up already. 
The original post is here.
Cheers,

To those who do not get decorations around their windows in KDE:
Try write in terminal
If it get decorations around windows 
Then edit /usr/local/bin/compiz-fusion add then logout and login
That one I solved my problem |
