I would like to say that this packages lacks of dependencies, and it is unusable unless you specify xcompmgr as a requirement, and instead of modify Xsession modife an entry on gnome-session for the software composite.
you can also alternatively add compiz, compiz-gnome, and compiz-plugins as recomended or suggested.
I am a Product concept designer, and I am currently working on a project that requires windows to be displayed in different orientations. By that I mean upside down, upside left, and upside right. Think of a monopoly board displayed on a monitor embedded in a tabletop. Is there such a thing? Can it be built? Please contact me directly.
