I am new to Ubuntu/Linux, I was toying around with a few things here and there when I accidentally clicked on compton icon and now docky doesn't auto-hide, neither any other animations work.



Every time I click on compton it gives me a message reading




Docky needs composition to work properly




Composition and GNOME compatibility is enabled in CCSM.



'compositing_manager' box is missing in apps-> metacity -> general in Configuration Editor:
