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

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,

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 have downloaded compiz-0.2.0 and tried to compile it. The INSTALL file talks about autgen.sh, but I am unable to locate it. I tried ./configure but it complains about a number of missing packages. Is there any docs on how to compile compiz on SLED 10 ? I have searched in a lot of places, but have not been able to dig up anything. A detailed list of what packages is required (and where to locate

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.

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

Hi All, First off, I've just started using compiz and its fantastic... I'm using compiz with KDE (on FC6), all is OK apart from one small niggle which is when I use the scale or switcher plugins it includes my kicker windows (the desktop panels) in the list, which isn't so pretty. I don't know much about gconf, but poking around in the settings for compiz and found that these

Hello, I just tried compiz-0.5.0 on my asus laptop with a intel 945gm chipset using intel_drv on the latest FC6 and get the following messages: The latest release of beryl does have this problem. How can I fix compiz to make it work? $ compiz --replace --indirect-rendering libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b compiz: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is not supported by

Compiz: A colleague tempted me with compiz eye candy, and I tried it. Sorry, but many features were too far outside my usability comfort zone: - lazy mouse (in /this/ day and age???) - The Run window did not reliably pop up - minimize-all-windows turned everything black Some of those items were configurable. Some required multiple, diverse reconfigurations to fix. I couldn't fix the

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

Adding new options to a plugin is a pain. There is a lot of code that has allways to be changed for that. This is the reason why I've created the Beryl/Compiz XML options parser (bcop). Bcop allows you easily to describe options in XML and will autogenerate the needed Beryl/Compiz C code for you. The only think that needs to be changed in a existing plugins is to include the xxx_options.h

I worte in my last mail that when I ue compiz git fullscreen videos are no longer ontop of the gnome-panel... that means that the gnome-panel is still visible while playing the video in fullscreen. The commit which I said may caused it has nothing to do with it compiz does not build if I revert it). again with older compiz and metacity it works fine. (now I am running 20070316). Anyone else wiith

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

Just a quick question, Any ideas why Fedora 7 is still on Compiz 0.3.6? Currently the main repository has 0.3.6 and the development one has 0.4. Shouldn't it be 0.4 for the main and 0.5 for the development? Does 0.4 break anything? -Ioannis

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

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

Hi all, I have one maybe stupid question - is there in CentOS 5 packages of Compiz Fusion? I am deciding between Fedora and CentOS to install it to my netbook and this is one of most important features that I want. Thank for replies -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

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:
