similar to: [PATCH] Compiz with Fglrx without Xgl (an hack for use-copy)

Hi! AFAIK FGLRX doesnt support glx_ext_texture_from_pixmap, and enabling composite+dri is resulting in screen corruption even with 8.38.6. Then how are you guys running it without XGL?

Some weeks ago one of my friends asked me to port the "use-copy" (non-tfp) beryl's feature to Compiz since he wasn't able to run compiz (fusion) smoothly in his nvidia card with turbocache (these cards works well only using Xgl, otherwise they are affected by the [in]famous "Black Window Bug". That's obiouvsly an error that nVidia should fix, but in the latest

Latest amd/ati drivers (8.37|8.38) supports composite with dri. So, after patching beryl (cause he can work without tfp) to make it use direct rendering on "aiglx method" and removed check for GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, which fails. - I was able to run beryl on fglrx WITHOUT Xgl. Only bug with windows drawing exists(as noticed in latest known issues for ati drives), more about this bug -

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I'm Trevi?o (AKA Trevinho, AKA 3v1n0, AKA trevi55 ;P) it's my first message here, also if I'm reading the ML from the archives since long time...

I have a Dell Inspiron with the ATI x1400 video card. In Ubuntu 7.04 I ran Compiz-Fusion in XGL with the fglrx drivers and the system was very responsive. I noticed no performance penalties at all. In Ubuntu 8.04 I am running Compiz natively with the current fglrx drivers, and the system is sluggish. Disabling Compiz makes the system very responsive. So I am interested in running Compiz in XGL

Hi again. I've got a laptop with an ATI X600 inside, perfectly working xorg with dual head configuration, 2 desktops (without xinerama). I've got 2 xorg.conf files, one for propietary ATI (fglrx) driver, and other to use the open source driver. The difference is very notorious. The problem I have is that I read (Saint Google) that to work with compiz/beryl and dual-head configuration, I

Hi, As there has been some confusion over Xgl and Xorg here, I thought I'd just post this. XGL acts as a client to the Xserver and acts as a server for all programs connecting to itself. Instead of displaying its results on a monitor, it interprets the display and calls the appropriate OpenGL APIs; the OpenGL driver physically interacts with the screen, keyboard and mouse. So you do need

Hello. I know this is off topic but sorry I cannot google out where xgl people discuss things (don't find an xgl mailing list) nor documents about this. Currently xgl supports modern ATI/Nvidia cards, is there any reason why older cards are not supported? Is it because old cards are not powerful enough, or is it because xgl is using some new 3D technologies? (OpenGL 2.0?) How about cards

I've been avidly updating mesa, xgl, and compiz, every week (from the portage-xgl overlay) hoping to solve some of these problems: * Using ati-drivers-8.29.6 xgl crashes complaining about lacking dri, so i'm using 8.27.10. * Using 2.6.18 kernels, the ati-drivers-8.27.10 don't compile when building the drm module. * My laptop automatically switchs to vt1 when init services fail

Hi all, have anybody already heard about Xgl? Do you know if there are rpm's for it? thx Nick -- Nicholas Anderson Administrador de Sistemas Unix LPIC-1 Certified Rede Fiocruz

Looking deeper to compiz/xgl I found three problems in my system that I report to you hoping to be somehow a little useful. I didn't find any of them using Xorg 7 First my testing environment: KDE 3.5 latest XGL cvs - XORG-7.0 Nvidia FX5200 64Mb Latest nvidia drivers Kernel 2.6.16.1 XGL problems: 1) xine is somehow broken with xgl, even with no composite managers: it is very slow even when

hi, I am using xgl on opensuse-10.2 with the latest driver from nvidia. I generally works fine. The only issues is fullscreen xvideo. The way the xvideo extension is implemented causes high cpu load in the opengl driver. CPU: AMD64 processors, speed 1800.21 MHz (estimated) Counted CPU_CLK_UNHALTED events (Cycles outside of halt state) with a unit mask of 0x00 (No unit mask) count 100000

First - I'm 24 hours into having xgl and compriz going. (very nice) Second - I'm probably on the wrong list! Is it possible to render (capture?) an image in compriz/xgl that's a higher resolution than the screen output? The zoom plugin for compriz seems to use the native res and then enlarge - at least by default... Thanks, Chris -------------- next part -------------- An HTML

Hi Did anybody see (s)RPM for Xgl? i would be a nice for my CentOS 4 workstation ... -- Petr Kl?ma e-mail: qaxi at seznam.cz

wine version: 1.0-rc4 - Installing Sketchup works fine with some minor issues. - Running Sketchup will result in the following error message: "Sketchup was unable to initialize OpenGL! Please make sure you have installed the correct drivers for your graphics card. Error: ChoosePixelFormat failed", and after that the application closes down. As mentioned in several of the test

I know this list is meant for discussion of compiz specifically, but .... 1) I sometimes see compiz spit out "Could not bind pixmap to texture" messages, even though it _appears_ to be working fine. I randomly guess that this is due to me running out of video memory (iirc I have 64mb of vram). Is that possibly a problem? I think Vista and OS X manually manage video

Hello, I'm new to the list but I've been following it since its inception. First of all sorry for the length of this post, if you're not a Fedora user just skip it. I've been building Compiz packages since Fedora Core 5 came out (Xgl only) and updating since then with all the new stuff, AIGLX and whatever. I use them on a very large range of hardware. Attached are my source rpm

Those windows are normally

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

So, you have Intel graphics? Which chipset? I hear the 915 isn't good enough for sketchup, but the 945 might be, though you may have to disable DRI. See http://wiki.winehq.org/GoogleSketchup for more info, look at the links section at the bottom.
