Hello SuSE experimentors, Trying out compiz-fusion on 10.3 using the nvidia drivers but doesn't seem to be working right. I don't get a cube. The screen rotates when I click on another desktop which brings up the application that is open on that desktop so something is working. I also don't get my four enabled desktops, only #1 and #3 and they both have the same desktop picture. Also sometimes when I open up a new app I don't get any window decorations (max, min, close) and I have to run emerald again. Hope somebody has ideas/advice. I'd like to try it out but not much good the way it is. Bob S -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

you must be sure you are usung the native NVIDIA driver for 3D instead of xgl, run the following as root in the console: gnome-xgl-settings --disable-xgl that will obviously disable xgl (If enabled), then run (always as root): nvidia-xconfig --composite --allow-glx-with-composite --render-accel --add-argb-glx-visuals That's it... you have the native NVIDIA driver running and compiz enabled, now you can run the CCSM and in the command line within the window decorations plugin, you can run your favorite window decorator, mine is set to emerald --replace & If you have any doubt, don't hesitate to ask... ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

gnome-xgl-settings --disable-xgl
that will obviously disable xgl (If enabled), then run (always as root):
nvidia-xconfig --composite --allow-glx-with-composite --render-accel --add-argb-glx-visuals
That's it... you have the native NVIDIA driver running and compiz enabled, now you can run the CCSM and in the command line within the window decorations plugin, you can run your favorite window decorator, mine is set to emerald --replace &
Hi Fernando, Thanks for your interest. I had done all of that already, but I redid what you wrote just to make sure. No change except that emerald works now. I played a lot with the kde settings and ccsm and finally have my four desktops back. But !!! still no cube ! Double checked everything about the cube in ccsm and it seems to be set up correctly. I must be missing something. Any other thoughts/insight would be welcome.

rm -rf /home/yourusername/.config/compiz* Will reset all the settings in ccsm, cube is on by default. Cheers -J -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Why you say there's no cube? Have you pressed the keys ctrl+alt+right/left arrow? or moved windows outside the left/right side of the screen? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
