[SLE] Xgl SuSE 10.1 => missing windows decoration
Hi, I apologize if the following issue has been addressed before, but I could'nt find any solution with Google. I managed to install correctly Xgl+compiz (factory) on SuSE 10.1 using an ATI X600 video card on a Dell Laptop. It worked nicely albeit a problem when shutting down the X-server, so I had to manually remove the .X0-lock file in /tmp/ every time I boot. I then wanted to install the latest ATI driver 8.26.18. After doing so, the window borders disappeared in Kde and in Gnome. I decided to perform a new clean install of the system + new ATI driver + SuSE factory Xgl packages... the problem is still there. (I even downgraded to previous ATI driver 8.25.XX with the same result) I tryed to follow many different Howtos without luck. Xgl is running, all effects are there, but window borders are missing and thus I cannot move them (that is the annoying thing !!). Anyone has a clue ? Thank you Regards Matthias -- ___________________________________________________ Matthias Titeux, PhD Departement de génétique des maladies epithéliums INSERM U563 - CPTP Pavillon Lefebvre, 5ème étage CHU Purpan 31059 Toulouse cedex 03 __________________________________________________ -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

OK with some help of Jigish Gohil I solved my problem For those having the same : INSTALL the libwnck package from the Factory repository together with the Xgl, compiz and libpng packages. Now it works matthias -- ___________________________________________________ Matthias Titeux, PhD Departement de génétique des maladies epithéliums INSERM U563 - CPTP Pavillon Lefebvre, 5ème étage CHU Purpan 31059 Toulouse cedex 03 __________________________________________________ -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com

That is probably a bug in the int10 module you're experiencing. Updated packages for X.org will be available soon.

There is a patched libwnck that you may want to download from http://www.compiz.net/viewtopic.php?id=119, this libwnck would give extra context menu options such as keep above, below, move to viewport etc. You might want to check out experimental compiz package too. -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
