cat > /usr/share/applications/compiz.desktop << "EOF"
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Compiz
Exec=compiz ccp
NoDisplay=true
# name of loadable control center module
X-GNOME-WMSettingsModule=compiz
# name we put on the WM spec check window
X-GNOME-WMName=Compiz
# back compat only 
X-GnomeWMSettingsLibrary=compiz
X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=WindowManager
X-GNOME-Provides=windowmanager
