I have recently switched from original ubuntu 12.10 to ubuntu studio 13.04. After some research I found out I could install compiz to this as well. I have to go to the terminal and run compiz --replace
to get the changes I made to take effect, and even at that doesn't seem like all features work like work space cube. I also noticed that when I activated compiz through terminal my tool bars on all my windows goes away.
I heard I could install emerald windows manager to set windows and just add the command emerald --replace
in compiz under window decoration. However when I search for emerald nothing comes up in synaptics or Ubuntu software center. I figure gnome tweak tools should let me set a theme to bring back my tool bars, but I am not positive this will work, or create more problems.
I guess ubuntu studio uses xfce desktop while original ubuntu used gtk. can I install gtk to ubuntu studio just like I did with original ubuntu 12.10 to set themes to fix this problem? has anyone else had the same problem with compiz on ubuntu studio with work space cube not working?
