Re: [opensuse] Suse 10.3 Beta1 +Compiz-fusion
Compiz-Fusion packages in X11:XGL (Stable) are now updated to 0.5.2.
The -git packages in home:cyberorg(Test) are roughly equal to 0.5.2 packages in X11:XGL. They may require xorg packages from xorg73 repository to run.
More details here: http://dev.beryl-project.org/~cyberorg/suse/51/
Cheers

Just deleted the -git installation and went for 0.5.2 from X11:XGL. All OK except that ccsm doesn't allow me to choose anything apart from the defaults. All the options are greyed out. I cannot check the check boxes. I have all the plugins I can find installed via yast. What am I missing? 10.2 on nVidia. Cheers.

Try and start compiz with 'compiz --replace ccp' and have correct backend selected in ccsm (Flat-file). Compiz as well as ccsm has to be run as user, not root. Cheers -J -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Been there, done that. Still get the xorg.0.log has the following line after adding the option "allow-glx-with-composite" "enabled" option "render-accel" "enabled" option "add-argb-glx-visuals" "enabled" Under screens (WW) NVIDIA(0): Option "allow-glx-with-composite" is not used (WW) NVIDIA(0): Option "render-accel" is not used (WW) NVIDIA(0): Option "add-argb-glx-visuals" is not used Supposedly the compiz: Trying '/usr/$LIB/libIndirectGL.so.1' ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/$LIB/libIndirectGL.so.1' from LD_PRELOAD was supposed to be cured by the option "Composite" "Enable" line under extensions in xorg.conf. It does not. Uninstalled and installed again, no change. added xgl, and updated mesa to 7.0 something. no change. Uninstalled and tried installing from X!! repository. Comes up with no installable source for compiz. Try smart with X11 repository, emerald wants gconf-2. No installable source again. Think I will give up for awhile. Maybe things will get straightened out in the next week or so. Guess this is what you really call dependence hell.
