Beryl and Compiz Merge: What's actually going on?
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

Patchs criterias
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

Move KDE Plasma Integration to KDE Git Infrastructure
Hi Compiz developers,
as you might know KDE will transition to git somewhen next week. This gives
some new possibilities for the Compiz community, too.
Let me first describe the current situation and the problems with it: Compiz
and KDE releases are out of sync. We are currently more and more integrating
features from the desktop shell into the window manager. In difference to
other desktop

Compiz ignoring changes in gconf in Opensuse 10.2
Hi,
I have recently upgraded to Opensuse 10.2 from 10.1
and all the changes that I am making in gconf have no
effect on compiz. I am running compiz as a window
manager in kde and I have followed the instructions
for running compiz in Opensuse 10.2.
However if I change in session manager the preferred
window manager to kwin and then put compiz.desktop in
Autostart directory all the changes in

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.

switch metacity->compiz (compiz ignores its own settings)
I have configured compiz to use 1 workspace and 4 viewports and metacity
to use 4 workspaces.
When I start compiz while metacity was running it uses 4 workspaces and
4 viewports (ignoring the gconf settings).
When I restart X so that compiz is started before metacity this does not
happen (it uses what its configured for).
bug or feature?
if feature can it be disabled?

compiz on aiglx redux
Hi,
I've revisited compiz on aiglx and at this point, if you're running
rawhide (fedora development), it's a matter of installing the i386 RPM
found here:
http://people.redhat.com/krh/compiz/
There's a SRPM there too for other architectures, rebuild using
rpmbuild --rebuild compiz-0.0.13.fedora1-3.src.rpm
To run compiz, first start the gnome-window-decorator process in

Compiz and Beryl are Reuniting
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:

Can't Turn OFF compiz autostart since 0.7.4.x
Devs, compiz listmates:
Why can't I turn off compiz autostart on openSuSE 10.3 i386? Compiz just
decided to start automatically with KDE login ever since I upgraded to the
first 0.7.4.x release from the openSuSE build service. I have tried to disable
it by creating the file "disable-compiz" in ~/.config/compiz but compiz still
starts at login. Even if I switch to kwin before

Compiz porting plan, for help
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

General compiz questions
I've been using compiz on KDE for a while now and I like the eye
candy. Thanks to all who made this possible. I'm usually a no-nonsense
guy who doesn't care about eye candy (I'm not even using a background
picture because I'm worried about the memory it'll use (on a machine
with 2 GB of RAM) :) ) but compiz stormed (sic!) my defences.
Now for my questions:

Compiz Community
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

Discussion about Compiz and working togeher
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

Regarding freedesktop.org and Compiz
We were a little imprecise in our original announcement with regards to
moving away from freedesktop.org, which seems to have caused some confusion.
We are only moving away from the freedesktop.org infrastructure. NOT the
standards.
By moving away from freedesktop.org, we are:
- Shutting down bug-submission on bugs.freedesktop.org. We will be using

Compiz starts, but no 3D effects
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
