Severity: important

I am running Xorg 7.1 with the Nvidia beta drivers and KDE.

Every time i used to start compiz i got this error:
"Another window manager is already running on screen: 0"
and compiz failed to load.

After i deleted my ~/.kde/share/config/kdesktoprc everything started
working.

Trying to narrow down the problem a little more, it seems if i
disable icons on my desktop compiz returns the above error.

Cheers,
