According to one of my books that's specific to SuSE 10.3, I've done all that's necessary to enable Xgl and Compiz, and the Gnome desktop effects module confirms that my graphics card is suitable, that 3-D is enabled.
In KDE, I'm able to run the configuration tool, and it appears to be working. However, I can't get a Compiz session started. When I go to the appropriate place in personal settings to choose a session manager, only kwin appears, in a combo box that is grayed and disabled.
Is there some extra step that's commonly overlooked, that makes Compiz show up in the session manager selections?
It will show up in the dropdown box if a) compiz is installed b) GL is enabled c) GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is present c) is the tricky one. The nvidia driver supports it, and I'm told the ATI driver does too, but only if you have a very new card. Otherwise you'll have to run Xgl Anders -- Madness takes its toll -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
