instead of xgl, use the native NVIDIA driver for 3D, run the following as root in the console:
gnome-xgl-settings --disable-xgl
that will obviously disable xgl, then run (always as root):
nvidia-xconfig --composite --allow-glx-with-composite --render-accel --add-argb-glx-visuals
after doing that you must create a script on:
~/.kde/Autostart/startcompiz.sh #! /bin/sh compiz --replace ccp &
and make it executable. 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... ;-)
Hi Fernando
Great - and, thank you. I've got the cube, etc! But now I've got the no borders problem ... ?
So you must run emerald --replace & or the window decorator you want from the command line.... i don't know why it isn't working from the CCSM command line. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

OK. Restarted. I now have borders, and most of the candy that I've selected within ccsm, but now have a problem with Desktops/Workspaces. KDE Desktops ============ There are always 4. I can change it with Configure Desktop, but it always reverts to 4. Similarly, they take up half the panel. Workspaces ========== Moving applications to another workspace means they disappear and don't appear when the cube is rotated. They also disappear from the panel. Alt-TAB ======= Alt-TAB only cycles through applications on the current Desktop. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You must change from 4 to one desktop within the configure desktop and CCSM.
Similarly, they take up half the panel.
Workspaces ========== Moving applications to another workspace means they disappear and don't appear when the cube is rotated. They also disappear from the panel.
This one is beyond me, maybe you must report as a bug.
Alt-TAB ======= Alt-TAB only cycles through applications on the current Desktop.
In order to cycle through all applications on all desktops use Alt+Super+Tab -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
