Does anyone know how to get compiz-fusion running? I have installed all of the packages incloding those for gnome and kde, but the only thing I can find is compiz manager which does not have any start or stop in it that I can find.
If you have supported graphics card
Try init 3 -> log in as root -> gnome-xgl-switch --enable-xgl -> init 5
login and launch compiz as follows
compiz --replace ccp &
Launch ccsm and select all the plugins you require, type in your window decorator command in decoration plugin.

I would suggest not running XGL with Compiz Fusion if you have native NVIDIA drivers.. What video card do you have?
Here, check out a blog that I wrote about compiz fusion:

Hope it helps

I have Nvidia geforce 7300 and it is working with the NVIDIA driver. (That would not install with YAST, downloaded the latest version and installed manuall). I will try your writeup when I get back from my swim this morning, but I do have a question. Why does compiz-fusion not require the xgl? (I will uninstall xgl, all of the programs you have listed are installed).
Art
Why would it not install via YaST? Did you do the G01 package? That's the correct one to use. If you are running on native NVIDIA drivers, it can do the rendering for you, and that is why you don't need XGL to do your rendering. Less CPU usage too (I previously ran XGL with Beryl and then switched to NVIDIA native driver, and worked much better and CPU usage stayed way lower with Xorg)..
Thanks
Ben
Done a complete reinstall. The compiz-fusion for 10.3 are in cyberorg SUSEFactory repository instead of 10.2. 10.2 versions have too many dependency problems. The NVIDIA drivers show up in Yast now, but they are for the wrong kernel version. I did install the NVIDIA 100.14.11 driver with no problem. Everything worked upto the sudo nvidia-xconfig –composite –allow-glx-with-composite –render-accel – add-argb-glx-visuals It comes back with invalid option -composite. Guess it is because of not having the susefied nvidia drivers for 10.3. Maybe in the near future.

Since I could not get compiz to work in 10.3, I tried it on 10.2, also with GeForce 7300 GL. Installed the nvidia drivers per http://www.benkevan.com/blog/compiz-fusion-on-opensuse-102/ Still same problem with the nvidia-xconfig. Turns out I have two of them, /usr/bin/nvidia-xconfig and /usr/bin/X11/nvidia-xconfig. Tried both by adding the path to the command, same thing. Done some searching on the internet where someone had added option "composite" "enabled" in the xorg.conf extensions section. Tried that, still no success with the compiz –replace ccp &. I added the following to the xorg.conf Section "Extensions" option "composite" "enabled" option "allow-glx-with-composite" "enabled" option "render-accel" "enabled" option "add-argb-glx-visuals" "enabled" EndSection Still no success.

Are those more up to date than the git releases in the opensuse 10.2 cyberorg repo? What do you recommend for folk with git installs. Uninstall the git and install 0.5.2 meanwhile?

Those should be more up to date then those on Cyberorg repository. Although there was no numbering system before this (that I know of). Hopefully Cyberorg repo will be updated shortly..

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.
