similar to: Compiling Compiz

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

Hi all! I'm currently working with Compiz and as part of that I'm trying to create more developer documentation, as I think that's important in inviting both new explorers and bug patches to the project. I've started an overview document to go in addition to any existing code examples. It's currently available at http://iki.fi/Tuukka/2006/summercode/wiki/CompizTechOverview

I'm trying to define my long time keyboard shortcuts in compiz on a new FC6 system with gnome. I want <Alt>n to run a shell and <Shift><Alt>p for pan. In metacity I could set the shell shortcut from System->Preferences->keyboard shortcuts, and for something like pan (which was not in the menu) I could do it in gconf-editor (apps->metacity, etc.). Since neither the

Hey All, First off, congratulations to David and the others who worked on the 0.3.4 release and Happy Thanksgiving! There's been some discussion in the forum on the design and functionality of the compiz website and I'd like to get the opinion of David and any others who have an interest in this topic. My first question is to David. You indicated that you were interested in having

Hi I am trying to compile compiz 0.5.0 on SLED 10 SP1. I have installed all the requirements as per the docs but when I run ./configure I get the following error: checking for COMPIZ... configure: error: Package requirements (libpng xcomposite xfixes xdamage xrandr xinerama ice sm

I'm not reporting a bug (I know it's not the right place to do that anyway), but a little help would be appreciated. Once again I run into the famous "compiz: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing" error. The problem is I can't figure out what's wrong. I use fedora core 6 on an athlon XP with an ati RV250 and the radeon open-source drivers running compiz reports: $

David, can we get a "Documentation" item in the main menu leading to a new documentation page? I'd like to add a Howto and some other info for end users but none of the 4 main menu pages seem appropriate for that. I didn't see a way to add a menu item through the wiki, so I think you need to do that. Also, have you any thoughts about a new official logo? There's a thread

Compiz and Beryl merge: What's really going on? Recently Quinns post to the beryl-dev mailing list entitled 'Merge on' has led to a lot of discussion, some of which has been good and some of which has led to a lot of misinformation, to clear things up I'd like to give the story of the merge, and the justification for some of the more peculiar aspects. Basically lets try to avoid

I see many people hate Compiz (and use Beryl) just because it needs gconf + many other GNOME deps. I think this is the biggest advantage of Beryl over Compiz. Yes, users don't have to compile compiz with gconf, but how will they configure things? They'll modify the sources? Compiz needs a new configuration plugin. A text-based one, independent of tons of libraries would be great.

After several weeks of discussion the leaders of Compiz and Beryl have agreed that the two communities shall reunite. This decision is supported by both David and Quinn and represents the majority decision of the administrators and developers in each community. At this early stage not a lot has been decided, but these are the main points of the agreement: - As had previously been decided,

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

Hello, I'm new to compiz and to this list but I'd like to contribute. I couldn't find a more appropriate place to ask a few questions about the compiz project (which is actually my first question). 1. Since the apparent compiz/beryl fork I don't see a compiz "community" site. Is there one? 2. Is compiz going to continue to be developed, and if so, is there a road

I've been informed by freenode staff that in order to claim #compiz and #compiz-dev (both are apparently leftovers from beryl) we need to fill out a group registration and have a group contact. I'd be willing to handle all that, just thought I should ask here first to see if everyone was ok with it. Thoughts? -- Travis Watkins http://www.realistanew.com

Hello Community Congratulations everyone for the reunification. To kick off the process, shall we finalize channels we are going to use for communication so that all the developers involved know what is going on and where. Which ML and IRC would be used for 'semi-official' communication etc. 1. Danny, Quinn and Marex have already started working on compiz-plugins-beryl-premerge tree on

Changes since 0.2.2: * Core Some stencil buffer requirements have been removed. Focus stealing prevention. Fragment attribute interface that allow plugins to perform more advanced fragment shading effects while integrating properly with other plugins. Use composite overlay window for output by default. Add file notification API.

Hi I just tried out the new 0.1.0 release of beryl. Generally I do like the compiz fdo version, because I like the gconf integration and the metacity theme support in gwd. Also I think their configuration system is a complete mess, this beryl settings manager is completly bloated in my opinion. Anyway, I noticed they have quite a lot of plugins. While I found most of them nothing special, the

Beryl has a --skip-gl-yield ( I think now managed by --force-nvidia, dont really know though), that eases the use of beryl under heavy CPU load. Is this implemented in compiz? Cause compiz is _REALLY_ slow under heavy cpu use for me. Thanks, Joel -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi! Just did a TEST install of centos5 on an old PIII box. one of the things I wanted to see was the fancy desktop eye-candy of compiz and/or beryl. This box has a nvidia 6600 series card, and I've isntalled the Nvidia drivers (download from nvidia and run their installer). I used the software updater to install compiz (didn't show up on original install, perhaps I didn't hold my

Hi, Recently i have worked on re-writing beryl's transparent cube, and ported 3d plugin to compiz. I'm attaching a patchset here that includes the transparent cube patches (i'll post the 3d plugin when i fix some problems that didn't happen in beryl). Patching order: btf-ftb.patch, clip-planes.patch, plugin-events.patch, cube-paint-order.patch, transparent-cube.patch. Special
