I've added configuration support to the dbus plugin. I haven't done much testing so let me know if you find any issues with it. You can find some usage examples in the dbus plugin code. This is what KDE needs for compiz configuration support but you can of course use it for other configuration systems too. E.g. writing a simple daemon that monitors a text file and use this dbus interface

An initial community site has been setup here: http://www.go-compiz.org It needs a lot of work and I haven't had time to do much yet. It's a wiki so everyone is invited to help out and make it the site they want it to be. A git repository that pretty much anyone could get commit access to and host compiz related stuff at is being set up and I'll post some more details about this

I am writing a configuration front end for the compiz gconf plugin at the moment, but it's proving harder than it should be because gconf does not record what type of compiz option the key is. For example, say i want a color picker for each color option the only way I can tell with gconf if it is color is if it has a # at the beginning, but there could be string option which also have a # at

This patch adds support for getMetadata to plugins. It could probably use better strings for "core". I need this for my dbus-based configuration GUI. -- Travis Watkins http://www.realistanew.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

It looks like you just assumed too much. kde-config has a specific include dir query. I am now hitting some dbus problems, but it does not seem to be related. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I like to get another developer release out before the end of the week. The only thing left on my list of things that should be fixed before this release is the y-constrain functionality in the move plugin, which is currently broken on multi-head setups. If you have any patches you want to get in or bugs that you like to see fixed before this release, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Instead of use compiz windows manager, I want to use matchbox, but I want reuse compiz plugins, means I use matchbox + compiz as windows manager + 3D desktop effect solution, would you please give me some suggestion about my plan. What about the effort? Would you please give me some suggestion. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: David Reveman [mailto:davidr at novell.com] Sent:

I've started work on a rewrite of sorts for the dbus plugin that changes how it listens/responds to messages to make it possible to generate introspection data. The main changes are registering every plugin, screen, option, etc with dbus_connection_register_object_path and using libxml2 to generate the introspection data. This more or less works I just need to hook up the rest of the methods

I was always annoyed that you couldn't terminate an action with dbus so I have written this patch which fixes that. Hopefully this can be included. I wrote the patch trying to repeat as little code as possible so I just added a boolean parameter to the dbusHandleActivateMessage and changed the name to dbusHandleActivateDeactivateMessage. You could probably change the deactivate parameter

FYI, I have put up a forum post [1] where I am going to maintain information about the netwm api for the dbus plugin. I have gone through the EWMH spec [2] and broken it down into a dbus compatible api, it seems to be good and roughly compatible with the existing compiz one. I think everything should be self explanitory, if there are any comments or if there is anything I have misunderstood or

A new compiz release 0.5.4 is now available from: http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/app/compiz-0.5.4.tar.gz which can be verified with: http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/app/compiz-0.5.4.tar.gz.sha1 761e5ac96426cab48588d14960e84971ad103372 compiz-0.5.4.tar.gz

The place plugin has a bug: when compiz is restarted or started to replace another wm it the windows are placed in weird positions ( titlebar behind the panel etc.) shouln't the place plugin loop over all open windows and place them correctly when loaded? this should solve this issues. any reason why this isn't done? have I missed something or is this just a bug?

A new compiz release 0.5.2 is now available from: http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/app/compiz-0.5.2.tar.gz which can be verified with: http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/app/compiz-0.5.2.tar.gz.sha1 0d0a4a39bfbe0ada770d9206b7a1b6b443c53c29 compiz-0.5.2.tar.gz

Hi, I'm hacking together a python application that tried to detect what plugins did not load in compiz so that they can be disabled and / or troubleshooted against by reading the output from Compiz. My problems are the following a) Trying to grab the output of Compiz results in a hangup as compiz does not terminate and therefore the main gtk loop is hung up b) Querying DBUS and compizconfig

Dennis Kasprzyk and I have been discussing some changes to how options are initialized. Problems with how options are currently initialized. 1. Helper functions are not used to initialize options, which means that if we make a change to the option structure, all option initialization code needs to be updated. Using helper functions will also reduces the amount of duplicate code. 2. No

Hi folks, For ubuntu specs and for a better desktop integration of compiz, I made some patchs and plugins. Focus prevention is now in main stream, and really better can i made :) First the workspace and terminal keybinding patch. Since my last email I updated the patch. http://gandalfn.club.fr/ubuntu/compiz-patch/91-workspaces-terminal-keybindings.patch It adds the support for vertical

Hi, I have recently upgraded to Opensuse 10.2 from 10.1 and all the changes that I am making in gconf have no effect on compiz. I am running compiz as a window manager in kde and I have followed the instructions for running compiz in Opensuse 10.2. However if I change in session manager the preferred window manager to kwin and then put compiz.desktop in Autostart directory all the changes in

I have written an initial flat file configuration backend for Compiz. At the moment it is using FAM for monitoring of files (it can be compiled without monitoring support for now). It is working fine but there are a couple of problems. 1. It looks like I should use addFileWatch rather than directly accessing FAM, is this correct? I notice dbus uses addFileWatch rather than

I just pushed some code into the compiz repository for initial metacity theme support. It's not complete, left and right borders are not rendered correctly, button decorations doesn't always match event window locations, maximized and shaded windows are not rendered as when running metacity, button locations are not configurable as with metacity... but it still seem to look OK with most
