similar to: Feature request: Multi-head awareness in compiz and plugins

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 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

Changes since 0.3.2: * Core Support for multiple desktops (workspaces). Much better multi-head support. The workarea is calculated per output and windows are now maximized properly. Edge button option has been added to action options. It can be used to require a button press for edge actions to be triggered. Basic support from internal

I noticed today that there have been changes in the i810 dri drivers in Mesa CVS adding texture_rectangle support. This previously prevented compiz from working at all. After compiling the new dri drivers and testing them it appeared to finally work with a decent performance as well: http://www.sukimashita.com/temp/compiz-i815.gif However, as seen on the screenshot the known "black

I've seen that a lot of inaccurate and faulty information about this. All technical reasons (alternative configuration system, alternative decorator, xinerama...) for this fork are incorrect and I know that at least Quinn Storm is aware of this, based on a phone conversation we had last week. I've designed compiz to be extremely extensible. The plugin system should allow people to do

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

Greetings everyone! During the 5 months since Compiz was released lots of work has been done outside of the official team by the new Compiz community in order to improve Compiz's features and usability. These unofficial developers are mainly using the compiz.net boards, #xgl or #compiz-dev IRC channels on Freenode to get in touch, discuss ideas, features, patches and bugs... Most patches

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've just updated compiz in fedora rawhide and wanted to post a quick overview of the patches we still carry. Patch details are available here: http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/rpms/compiz/devel terminate-move.patch restart.patch These are already upstream, but not yet in a released version. aiglx-defaults.patch tfp-server-extension.patch These two paper over a problem in

I have had a rather hard time enabling Compiz on my Dell laptop, as it has an ATI X1400 video card. I found a tutorial which helped me configure Compiz in Gnome, but I'm not about to switch to Gnome. I hope that someone here can help me translate the scripts used in the tutorial to start KDE instead of Gnome. I myself have been unable to do so, after a good day googling the subject. These are

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

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

Hi Colin Gutrie: Thanks for your repply about alt-gr problem. And great!!!! I'm also a developer (opengl developer), so I very happy to find a developer list of compiz...I'm working in some ideas for pluggins (for now only in a opengl format without nothing about compiz or xgl), so I very interesting in work with you, is this posible??, please guide me on this...what I have to do to set

Hi to all: My name is Mauricio and I write from Chili, I new on the list, so hi to all. I'm using Xgl and compiz and is an amazing technologie, also even as a "alpha" software work allmost perfect on my inspiron 6400-ATIX1300. I only have 2 problems. The first related to some java app and compiz (like limewire), so I read on the list something about a patch to try to solve this, I

I have installed Compiz-Fusion on several Ubuntu machines, all different hardware, with KDE. In all of them, the option to shutdown or reset the computer is absent from the KDE logout buttons when running Compiz-Fusion. I have searched google and see that others have this problem, but I do not see a solution. Is there a known solution to this condition? Thanks in advance. Dotan Cohen

David & All, As you might have heard, Intel recently introduced a new low-power device called a Mobile Internet Device (MID). We're working in Intel's Open source Technology Center on the Linux Desktop UI. Given the small screen we're planning on using a stack-based window manager where each application runs full-screen (think Matchbox). We think it would be very cool to get a

I would like to get a better understanding as to why Quinn's patches have not been accepted into the compiz git tree. I feel Quinn's patches could greatly improve compiz. She has made quite a lot of progress wrt to enhancing compiz with her cgwd window decorator which allows users to write their own themes for window decorations. Also, many of the plugins that are in compiz.net are MIT

Dear Dotan, The problem of flashing/flickering in 3D apps/ videos with Xv enabled on account of non-redirection is limited to AIGLX and not an issue at all with XGL and compiz. fglrx till date has many mem leaks and crappy 3d performance on linux especially with compiz enabled. If you want to use these apps with compiz, for now use XGL. Else just disable compiz temporarily when

Running compiz without a desktop window has some unexpected behavior. It is not possible to grab the cube with the mouse. The pointer needs to be over a window for it to work. In display.c the XSelectInput call in addDisplay is missing ButtonPressMask and ButtonReleaseMask, so it makes sense why this doesn't work. Is there a reason why they have been left out? Lower window with Button2 on
