similar to: Problems with compiz, fglrx, and City of Heroes

I just installed Compiz on Ubuntu Feisty (Gutsy does not work on my hardware as per the release notes) via the http://ppa.launchpad.net/amaranth/ubuntu repo, which is the repo suggested in the compiz-fusion website. The machine is a Dell Inspiron E1505 / 6400 with the horrible ATI X1400 graphics card and 1680x1050 monitor. I installed XGL and the proprietary ATI driver, a combination that worked

How can I install City of Heroes so that all the users of this computer can access it? I installed it according to some instructions I found which placed it in /home/wootcat/.wine/drive_c/Program Files, which means it only shows up for me. Any other users on this machine don't see it. Thanks!

Devs, compiz listmates: Why can't I turn off compiz autostart on openSuSE 10.3 i386? Compiz just decided to start automatically with KDE login ever since I upgraded to the first 0.7.4.x release from the openSuSE build service. I have tried to disable it by creating the file "disable-compiz" in ~/.config/compiz but compiz still starts at login. Even if I switch to kwin before

I've been using wine for some time now to play City of Heroes and overall I've been very satisfied. One issue that has always bothered me is that COH gives a warning about outdated video card drivers even with the most recent drivers from NVIDIA installed. This limits the settings that can be chosen in the video options. I also suspect it's not making the most efficient use of my

This just began today, I ran the coh updater and it patched, everything was fine. I can't type in my password to log in. I can use the mouse within the window but I cannot select anything either. Any ideas? Thanks.

This problem actually started a while ago...took me some time to get around to looking for a solution. I was hoping either the new Wine version or new Ubuntu might fix things, but they didn't. I have been running City fine in the past, but now I can no longer get it to load. When I launch the program, I get the Updater screen where it checks for/downloads the updates and apparently applies

is there a tweak for coh for a nasty looking screen? my mouse and all my power buttons appear as a big square. the screen appears like it is missing every second line of graphics. I am running ubuntu 7.10, on a dell xps genII 2 gig intel processor 2 gig ram nvidia 6800 ultra 256m on board glx framerate is average 12,000fps vid is set to 1024x768 wine ver is 0.9.46 I cant use wine ver 1 unless

The problem is that when moving (the most obvious activity you can see this with) the key you press acts like it's being pressed in rapid succession instead of being held down. That is until another key is pressed then the previous key moves the character smoothly. This might be a problem with my keyboard though. But I'm putting this out there just in case anybody else has the same

Danny, All Thanks for a great compiz-0.7.6. The cylinder takes a little warming up to, but is really cool. Of all the boxes I have updated, I have one that now experiences the White Screen of Death (WSOD) when compiz is started. Killing X with ctrl+alt+backspace or ssh from remote and kill compiz and emerald is the only way out. The box was working fine with fglrx_7_1_0_SUSE103-8.476-1 and

Hi! As the subject says: I can start a game (only tested with skirmish), but after less than one minute it stops and crashes with the Relics crash dialog. I tried with different wine versions (atm 1.1.42 and 1.2) under Debian lenny 32bit (Linux 2.6.32) and Ubuntu Lucid 64bit with different fglrx versions. My graphics hardware is a Radeon HD 4200. Via winetrix I installed d3dx9, gecko, ie6, ie7,

Listmates, openSuSE 10.3 ati mobility radeon 9700 ati-fglrxG01-kmp-default-8.45.4_2.6.22.16_0.1-0.2 xorg: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/radeon3D/xorg.conf.no.emerald With the update to compiz 0.7.0-5.1, compiz-emerald and emerald-themes completely stopped working. Compiz will start and you can choose kde window decorations, but I cannot get emerald to work not matter what. Not from

Hi, this email is basically the result of a small discussion which made me think what the real end-goal of my work on Emerald-2 would be. Since Emerald has already a extensible system (Engines) I thought about giving the engines wider access, so that they are more like plugins. However the first thing needed is a nice plugin API. The base for that is the new settings backend of Emerald-2.

Dominique, cc: compiz, Dominique, you wanted the feedback, and List, I need your help. I have installed and fully configured (kicked the tires) on compiz 8.6 on openSuSE 11.0 and on balance it is great. There are a few weird things going on. Most notably, the number of options in ccsm that now uncheck themselves. In the past (compiz 0.5.6 - 0.8.2) there may have been one or two that would stick

You know, i was stunned when i found out Wine could run "Max Payne II" but couldn't handle something as graphically wimpy as "Golden Tee Golf". I'm starting to think GTG runs on some odd graphic system that might have had a 1 year popularity and maybe WINE doesn't have the support files to run it. Anyone have any ideas?

Listmates, On archlinux with emerald 0.8.2-1, the emerald theme editor windows are next to unusable. For some reason, the button edit 'Places' and 'Name' window areas are scrunched/squished way too small. Here is a screenshot: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/linux/compiz/emerald/editwindowlayoutsquished.jpg I have tried to resize them and either I don't know how, or

Hi, I have added compiz support to aquamarine. You can download it directly from beryl svn: svn co svn://svn.beryl-project.org/beryl/trunk/aquamarine/ To install: ./autogen.sh ./configure --enable-debug=full ./make ./sudo make install You can use kcontrol to set the decoration and decoration specific settings. You can post bugs to the beryl bugtracker at http://bugs.beryl-project.org . Please

As posted few days ago by Vladimir, newer fglrx ATi proprietary drivers supports the Composite extension (also if it provides buggy rendering for some apps), that's why using the non-tftp rendering you could run Compiz in fglrx drivers too without loading Xgl. However the use-copy option makes compiz do some checks that the fglrx drivers don't pass (I don't know why, since the

Hi, Xen wiki states that using linux 3.0 and above as dom0 works with all graphics cards. I could install the fglrx graphics driver on my desktop machine with a discrete graphics card (Radeon HD 5870), but I see a blank screen while loading fglrx on my AMD Fusion E350 machine with integrated graphics card (Radeon HD 6310). The graphics driver loads fine when the Linux kernel runs alone not as

Hi all, Here is a strange problem. I have recently installed the latest ATI fglrx driver (version 9.3). Everything appears to be fine, except glxgears only works for the root user. It turns out I was missing the DRI section in my xorg.conf. Once I added it I can run glxgears with no problem. But now I notice my wine games always crashes the computer (black screen with total lock up, needed to
