If Nihilus's patch works, go with that. It's probably a little safer than just commenting the whole thing out (which is what the one I posted does).
Has anyone using ati's drivers mangaged to get load Xgl from startup using gdm/kde/etc? Mine will just show the splash screen with an hour glass and hangs. The closest I've gotten was starting both X and Xgl but then then dri isn't enable on the Xgl server.
The only other issue I've had so far is that opengl apps don't seem to work for me. (eg. glxgears) Can anyone confirm this? |

I have maybe a solution for the black windows.
I found out that if I start the shadow plugin AFTER fade then I will get black windows but if I start it BEFORE the fade plugin it will work.
So give something like this a try:
| Code: | | glxcompmgr cube expose shadow fade rotate wobbly zoom |
|

@C.MAC
Thanks for these tips.
I will try them later.
PS: very nice Desktop!

Have you messed around with any of the glcompmgr source while you were trying to get it to work? That might cause the patches to not work.
Also, make sure you have the latest version of the overlay. |

I finally got xglcompmgr working thanks to the howto on page 15. Xgl and KDE 3.5.1 is working fine here in full screen mode and the effects are great. My setup includes a dual head GeForce FX 5600 with and AMD64 3200 in 32bit mode. Responsiveness in Xgl is about even with X and nvidia's drivers.
There are few things wrong. Xinerama doesn't work, mouse wheel settings on my MX700 mouse, the transparency issue in Wine is back, and IE fails to load under Xgl.
FYI, if you get this:
| Code: | glxcompmgr: glXBindTexImage{EXT,MESA} are missing
glxcompmgr: Failed to manage screen: 0
glxcompmgr: No managable screens found on display :0.0 |
Try this: | Code: | | LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/ glxcompmgr cube expose shadow fade rotate wobbly zoom |

I'm still having the black windows whatever combination I run for glxcompmgr... I get the "couldn't bind redirected window nnn to texture" thingie.
I'm wondering though. glxinfo in Xgl shows "GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap" on the server extensions, but it doesn't show up in client extensions (I do have GLX_MESA_render_texture though). I'm pretty sure I've put all the patches people say work in this thread, but I'm still getting the same errors. Anyone have any good suggestions?
ps. I also get "_XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6" when starting Xgl, but I don't think it's related.

with the patch I made where I commented out the block, I wasn't too sure if it was a legal diff file - I just wanted to show that it would work if you edit that file and comment out the test for the extension if you know you have the extensions. I don't recommend doing it unless you are sure of this.
I have Xgl working fine with glxcompmgr and all the goodies. Here's how I get it to work with gnome and my normal desktop...
Once the install is successful - from the console
| Code: |
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib Xgl -ac :1 -accel xv:pbuffer -accel glx:pbuffer &
DISPLAY=:1 metacity &
DISPLAY=:1 gnome-terminal &
|
I realize that I didn't export the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the mesa drivers because they didn't work when I used them. Anyway, this provides a gnome-terminal on an empty X screen. It doesn't matter in the end what order these next commands are done it, but if you reverse them, Gnome/KDE will take a very-very long time to start.
Create a new terminal ( Ctrl-Shift-N )
| Code: |
su yourusername
gnome-session &
|
With Gnome starting, flip back to the root terminal still open and activate the candy...
| Code: |
glxcompmgr cube expose fade rotate wobbly zoom &
|
Do not load the 'gconf' plugin - it will do weird stuff
Only one more detail and that is the Xgl-Super-Button. I couldn't get the effects at first until I remapped my Control key to the Super key. As the normal user...
| Code: |
xmodmap -e "keysym Control_L = Super_L"
|
Here are the controls... ( Note that Caps-Lock should be off )
- <Ctrl>Button 3 - Zoom In
- <Ctrl>Wheel - Zoom closer/farther
- Release Button 3 to end zoom
- <Ctrl><Tab> - Expose ( Mac-like ) - display all windows at once
- <Ctrl>Button1 - Drag around to rotate desktop cube
By the way, follow the http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Xorg_X11_and_Transparency guide in order to set up transset-df so you can do nifty transparencies with your wheel. I have <Ctrl><Up> and <Ctrl><Down> adjust my transparency, but if I hold <Ctrl><Shift><Up> or <Ctrl><Shift><Down>, it will go to either 30% or 100% opacity. It's nice for a quick look at what's behind the current window.
Good luck with Xgl - have patience for compiz - I wait excitedly... |

I've got a Radeon 9800Pro!
ON looking at CPU usage a bit more, I see it's actually Beagle (mono-beagled) that's taking a lot of CPU! Don't know why, as it normally doesn't. I assumed the increase in speed of the fans when I started the XGL server, was duie to is using a lot of CPU, wherease it was a complete red herring!!!!
XGL seems to be taking about 4% on average, even when I start moving windows around!!!
I'll kill Beagle and restart it, snd see if it keeps doing this!
Cheers
