    I enabled compiz-fusion and followed a guide to make it initialize on startup. I like the effects and everything, but when I try to watch video now the framerate is pretty poor. How do I disable compiz-fusion? Preferably, is there a way to easily disable and re-enable?
    Thanks.

    ALT-F2 type in:

    Code:
    xfce4-autostart-editor
    xfce4-autostart-editor

    and run it. Then uncheck compiz. This should prevent compiz from starting when you bootup.

    Another option is to install fusion-icon. This will place a new icon in your panel and from there you can turn compiz on or off.

    Code:
    sudo yum install fusion-icon
    Cheers.
