Easy Troubleshooting
If you run into issues, the output from this script makes it super easy to get help. You can share the info on the official Compiz Fusion forums or the mailing list for your Linux distribution. This way, finding support for any problems becomes a breeze.
Compatible with Many Environments
This script works well for users of GNOME, KDE, and Xfce. Plus, it’s not tied to just one Linux distro—it actually gives you details about your system!
The Test Breakdown
The test has three main parts:
- Listing important system info.
- Running several checks related to Compiz.
- Looking for any hardware issues or setup problems.

Checking for composite extension... [ OK ]

If Everything Looks Good...
