Do you have DISPLAYMANAGER_XGL_OPTS in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager? Did you run SuSEconfig after adding that?
Indeed I did, otherwise I couldn't have gotten compiz and all its nice effects working. Everything was working beautifully, except for video playback.
compiz can work without DISPLAYMANAGER_XGL_OPTS. Not to be confused with DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER
The main difference is a newer nvidia chipset.
Which is...
As I mentioned in my post of 04/28/2006, the two chipsets are: The working machine: nVidia Corporation NV34M [GeForce FX Go5200 32M/64M] (rev a1) The problematic machine: nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x] (rev a2) On the working machine, the DISPLAYMANAGER_XGL_OPTS defaults were fine. On the problematic machine, various options have been tried so far without success. I will install on more machines now that 10.1 is done, and so I will have half a dozen or more installations of xgl-enabled xorg to observe. Joe
