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

if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -DORBIT2=1 -pthread -I/opt/Xgl/include -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/gconf/2 -I/usr/include/orbit-2.0 -I/usr/include/libwnck-1.0 -I/opt/Xgl/include -I/usr/include/metacity-1 -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0

Greetings everybody! I started looking more thoroughly at gnome-window-decorator.c and now my head spins and "hurts" and believe that I'm not going to achieve anything serious in terms of tweakable shadows anytime soon. It's far more difficult than I expected. While I (believe) to understand now the shadows are drawn, I currently don't get why there are 12 shadow-quads and

I'll try and describe my dilemma, not really knowing what the base problem is. Ubuntu 10.04, working .wine install (updated to 1.3.9.) I have a working version of Firefox for windows 3.6.12 that I need to browse certain sites that need some windows only plugins that don't work with Firefox for Linux. I can not install the latest flash player because the Adobe screen where you

G'day all, I am trying to install the cairo package on FreeBSD and receiving an error to do with Makevars - (I'm not very good at this stuff) so here is my various bits of information. I guess this is a problem with a missing library, but I have just been through a lot of grief trying to get png and jpeg to work (they do now work!), so I'm not sure where to go for this. R

I am getting the following error using the macports version of wine 1.2.3: Code: fixme:xrender:XRender_AlphaBlend Unable to AlphaBlend without Xrender The macports developer said that xrender is already listed as a dependency, so I was wondering why this is not being picked up by wine? Also, there are other issues with the display of certain components in the windows program I'm trying

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

Since I first tried nVidia's AIGLX with Compiz I've been seeing some pretty consistent drawing problems on GWD's minimize and maximize buttons on hover. It looks like part of the fill is drawn with low alpha. I haven't been able to duplicate it when using Xgl... Here's a quick vid of what I'm seeing:

Dear All, I am running Debian testing on my box and I have R 2.9.0 installed from the standard repositories. I downloaded the package source from http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Cairo/index.html but when I try to install it on my system, this is what I get $ sudo R CMD INSTALL Cairo_1.4-4.tar.gz * Installing to library ?/usr/local/lib/R/site-library? * Installing *source* package ?Cairo?

Hey all, I'm very new to Wine, but I was very excited about the potential behind it, so I tried installing the 2.2.3 X11 XQuartz package from http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/Releases and kronenberg.org/darwine 's stable 1.0 version of Darwine on my Macbook that is running Leopard 10.5.3. The installs were easy, but I'm having some difficulty now with actually getting some

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've recently been looking at integrating Swfdec and GStreamer. There are some issues I'd like advice on. In order of importance for me: 1) Using GStreamer codecs Swfdec currently has a simple API for decoding data that looks like GstBuffer *decode_next_buffer (Decoder *dec, GstBuffer *input); [1] Which is used to decode video (VP6 and Sorensen Squeeze/H263 to RGBA) and audio

So, I am having a problem running this game I installed in the virtual drive created by Wine. I am new to running anything through wine. My current OS is Ubuntu 10.04 and the version of Wine that I am using is 1.1.43. The game seems to crash before I can even open it. This is the information I have so far: fixme:reg:GetNativeSystemInfo (0x33fe40) using GetSystemInfo()

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

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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello everybody, Those who are active in #Xgl on freenode know that I've had segfaults when starting Xgl during the last few weeks (which is also why there was no progress on my g-w-d rewrite). Today I found the time to debug Xgl and to find the bug. My mouse was configured as evdev device in xorg.conf, and to use it, it was set as the

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

Hi there again! I wanted to give a brief glimpse of the look of the new/customizable drop-shadows for compiz. In contrast to my earlier post today I currently follow the brute-force approach. 9 elements for the shadow... top-left top top-right left middle right bottom-left bottom bottom-right For the middle shadow-part there is a 2D-vector as parameter to allow growing or shrinking

As promised awhile ago... This patch makes compiz conformant with the latest published version of the GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap specification. It has been tested to be fully backwards compatible as well, so it will still work with current versions of Xgl. If GLX 1.3 support isn't available, it just falls back to the existing use of XVisualInfo. However, my version of Xgl is a bit
