Hi Folks,
I want to resell some older PC’s which were originally sold with Windows XP to run Ubuntu Mate.
However, i’ve noticed that machines which have Intel 8xx (Intel Extreme Graphics / Extreme Graphics 2) cannot run Compiz. Attempting to change to Compiz would be difficult for a novice user of Linux to undo.
But the option to change to Compiz is still present in Mate Tweak on these machines.
Is it possible that in 18.04 this option could be removed on machines with these chipsets? Either automatically by detection of these older GPUs by PCI ID or as a configurable option via dconf / gsettings?
What would also be great is if Compiz could be automatically enabled on capable hardware and Marco otherwise - I hope i’m not asking for too much.
