Thread: Help! Screen flashing on start up!

i tried enable compiz on netbook, installed ccsm. when enabled visual effects , restarted, netbooks monitor starts flashing when boot up. restarted in low graphics mode, uninstalled ccsm, , it's still flashing. there else need remove netbooks monitor normal? thanks!

the problem compiz still thinks it's enabled. start in recovery mode if flashing makes gui version unusable. you'll need login though, because problem lies in your-user home directory settings. i'm showing prompts in blue below, it's clear you're supposed far system concerned, don't type in, of course. memory, hope it's close enough works!

code:

root# su - your-user-name

(note spaces on either side of hyphen) may ask password again. not sure.

code:

your-user$ metacity --replace

("compiz --replace" in terminal toggle compiz again. can use "metacity --replace" in terminal time toggle compiz off.)
