Deactivate compiz fusion when full screen games are run

Registered by rodrigian

When a game is installed, it would be good that automatically when running the game, compiz could be disabled. Also if the user created a launcher, it could be implemented as a command like "openarena -no compiz" or something like that

Whiteboard

Rovanion: Automaticly turning off and on Compiz when launching and closing a game and/or other fullscreen applications is a good idea since there are some frequent bugs associated with compiz and fullscreen applications.

Note by <email address hidden>: This can be done in Compiz configuration. Should it be the default? Should we make an install option for it?

Rodrigian: http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/05/howto-automatically-disable-compiz-when.html here is a kind of workarround that could be included by default. And then all applications that would rewuire of 3d acceleration and full screen, when instaled the line described in the link should be added to the launcher of the app which is located in the menu.
