compiz-cms black screen

[josvanr]

I tried the new compiz-cms plugin for color management by Gabriel Ebner on ubuntu 12.10, both regular ubuntu and 'kubuntu' version. I installed both systems in virtualbox starting from the live cd iso. (I still have 12.04 on my laptop). Then installed the plugin from ppa:gebner/compiz-cms. On regular ubuntu 12.10 it seems to work fine.

On kubuntu 12.10 I first installed compiz, the plugin and ccsm. I did compiz --replace from within kde. Compiz starts fine (though the decorations are turned of in ccsm per default, not handy). But when I activate the compiz-csm plugin, the screen turns black. I do still see a cursor, changing into a | when it sits on a terminial so I could change back to kwin by blindly typing kwin --replace. I also see a black screen when the plugin is checked on and I restart the display manager....

Invalid for the compiz project. "compiz-cms" is not part of compiz.

Please create or ask Gabriel to create a launchpad project for compiz-cms so bugs can be assigned to it. Or alternatively ask for the plugin to be proposed for inclusion in compiz itself.
