similar to: Re: opengl under Xgl

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

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

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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hiho, I already reported this in <455F4553.9020109@tommie-lie.de> and found time to reinstall compiz yesterday and the problem still persists. I have Ubuntu's X.org 7.1.1 running on a Intel GMA 950 and latest compiz. When watching Xvideo files, the overlay window remains black. If I slightly move the video window, the video appears with

I've added a simple plugin to compiz that provides a way to render video efficiently on a composited desktop. A video playback client basically copies video data to a pixmap and sets an X property on a client window that describes the image format of the data and where it should be rendered. The compiz video plugin will scale and perform necessary colorspace conversions when compositing the

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

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

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

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

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 -

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

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 updated to current git and find the video plugin. What exactly is it supposed to do? I want to test it but I don't know exactly what to test.... Enabling it did not make any difference (it loaded successfully).

My mail to David Reveman, after sending, sombody told me, it would be better to write the list. So here is my first mail to a list. . .. ...

Hello all, I was wondering is it possible to add the input functionality to the zoom plugin? Currently zoom plugin is one of my favorite ones, I can open a terminal and still not increase font size but zoom on and READ it... ... because I'm not able to input anything to it, please correct me if I'm wrong; maybe it is already possible, but I still don't know how to do that...

Hi, I have a Pentium III PC with NVIDIA GeForce 7300GT on an AGP 8x and am running NVIDIA driver 9755 on CentOS 5.0 x86. What is the most efficient playback method for the various players, XVideo or OpenGL? RealPlayer has a "Use XVideo" tick box under the "Hardware" tab preselected, while MPlayer uses xv - X11/Xv, gl - X11(OpenGL) and other Video drivers. What is the most
