Description bunnyapoc 2016-03-11 03:20:20 UTC
When I try to change my compositor backend from xrender to any of the openGL options, when I return to this option it has not stayed, even when I click apply, click on an other option then back and click apply again. This persists between restarts.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.attempt to change from xrender to an opengl option for compositors
2.click apply even multiple times
3.see the option change in the compositor settings
4.exit the compositor settings
5. reopen the compositor settings
6. notice how your compositor settings have not actually changed

Actual Results:  
The settings do not change

Expected Results:  
The settings do change

Fairly fresh install of sabayon
