I just branched for 0.8, since Danny told me there was no reason not to. There are still some bugs to work out of course, but since development has been quiet lately, I figure it's time to branch so that we can: 1. Eventually get to the next stable release 2. Allow people to work more freely on master On my personal list of things I want to see working better before a 0.8 release, I have

Compiz 0.9.0 is released! This is the first unstable release of the Compiz 0.9 series. This release represents a complete rewrite of the 0.8 series from C to C++, brings a whole new developer API, splits rendering into plugins, switches the buildsystem from automake to cmake and brings minor functionality improvements. This release represents the first developer and tester preview of what will

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 bugs.opencompositing.org which will soon be

Hello, this patch adds support for real transparency to kdesktop. It adds two new composite manager related features. To activate the features kdesktop has to be started with the "--bg-transparency" option. The first one allows you to change the opacity of the background image. This works currently with the beryl transparent cube and will also work with compiz once the transparent

Hi, is anybody already working on porting the extra plugins (those ported over from beryl) to compiz 0.5.0? I'm especially thinking about the animation plugin. Or is this something to be addressed post-unification? CU all Matthias -- Matthias Hopf <mhopf@suse.de> __ __ __ Maxfeldstr. 5 / 90409 Nuernberg (_ | | (_ |__ mat@mshopf.de Phone

hi, I saw that Mike Dransfield tried to port 'state' plugin from beryl. What does it do? It should be able to place windows, based on name, class etc., to specific viewports. I recently converted to compiz window manager from WindowMaker (used it for 8 years), and I miss automatic 'pinning' of specific windows to particular workspace (or viewport in this case). Mike's

Hi! AFAIK FGLRX doesnt support glx_ext_texture_from_pixmap, and enabling composite+dri is resulting in screen corruption even with 8.38.6. Then how are you guys running it without XGL?

I'd like to get all of you updated on the compiz related things discussed at the X developer conference that was held last week. The slides I used for my talk are available from here: http://people.freedesktop.org/~davidr/xdevconf07/ and you can also find some notes from all talks here: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/XDC2007Notes My talk was mainly focused on "what's next" and how

This was a private mail and not supposed to go to the compiz list. Please don't don't read it unless you're on the compiz admin list. :) I've apologized to Jeff, Mike, Rico and Arturo for making this mistake and I'd like to apologize to anyone else who might have been offended by it. I guess the good part is that you get an uncensored view of what we feel about the community

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

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

Greetings everybody! I was asked by someone (from the beryl-forum) if/how one could alter the values for the two color-stops used by the fallback-gradient of the skydome (for the case the supplied image could not be found). Up to now they were hardcoded, but with this patch they can be set via... /apps/compiz/plugins/cube/screen0/options/skydome_gradient_start_color

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,

Hello Community Congratulations everyone for the reunification. To kick off the process, shall we finalize channels we are going to use for communication so that all the developers involved know what is going on and where. Which ML and IRC would be used for 'semi-official' communication etc. 1. Danny, Quinn and Marex have already started working on compiz-plugins-beryl-premerge tree on

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

Hi, I have added compiz support to aquamarine. You can download it directly from beryl svn: svn co svn://svn.beryl-project.org/beryl/trunk/aquamarine/ To install: ./autogen.sh ./configure --enable-debug=full ./make ./sudo make install You can use kcontrol to set the decoration and decoration specific settings. You can post bugs to the beryl bugtracker at http://bugs.beryl-project.org . Please

Hi, I am currently developing a xsnow like plugin for beryl called xglsnow (http://cornergraf.net/projects/xglsnow/). I have been told(1) that my way of drawing to the desktop is not very good and that a better way might exist. I realize beryl is not the same as compiz, but I hope that the differences are not too big on this matter, if not excuse me for this post. My drawing currently works
