ATTENTION compiz/quinn users!

I upgraded quinn's compiz/plugins today (0.0.13.45_0ubuntu1-1/0.16_0ubuntu1-1) and found that there is a new config GUI called "csm" and old gconf has been dumped. And there are some problems you will encounter if you're going to upgrade: · As I know, csm doesn't migrate your old gconf configs. · Many options are no longer automatically updated after you change them - you may have to restart compiz · gconf plugin has been removed, it's not even optional.You can see my repository info there => http://aquila.deus.googlepages.com/archlinuxpackages

Cheers!

What i have to change of my previous (using Arch Wiki) compiz xgl installation and configuration?
can you upload the cgwd-themer?
Thanks

Hi! cgwd-themer is inside the cgwd package. Installation is the same, except for that now you also have to pacman -S csm.

Your previous compiz settings in gconf will just be gone - you need to re-configure it using csm.

Quick question on your repo...

I appears that you have been keeping up with the new interfaces and such, but Im confused at how I would install your versions of Xgl/Compiz in comparison to the Arch Wiki.

I noticed that gconf didnt work a while ago, so I simply used the defaults. I would like to use your version, but how?

Do I follow the Arch Linux Wiki page and use your repo instead of their's?

Do I create the files the same way, subsituting the compiz --replace <Long> with compiz --replace dbus csm (Or something like that?)

Sorry for all the questions, but this project is moving so fast its hard to keep up with

Thanks!!!

Well, I figured it out ok, and it all works,,,

You have to use dbus-launch for all the commands, however...

Also, when I run dbus-launch cgwd, I dont see any themes... is there a seperate theme package now?

Thanks!!!

wow! all my package conflict nightmare is over!

i use launch dbus-launcher csm, but the compiz configuration doesn't change

suggestion:
Can you edit the
usr/share/applications/csm.desktop and /usr/share/applications/gcompizthemer.desktop to make easier the use of the packages ?

jotapesan · 2006-09-10 16:55:23

here's my solution. Now compiz looks great!!

$ cat /usr/bin/compizrc
#!/bin/bash
if [ `ps -A | grep Xgl | wc -l` == "1" ]; then
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mesa-xgl-cvs/lib/ LD_PRELOAD=/opt/mesa-xgl-cvs/lib/libGL.so.1.2
dbus-launch compiz --replace dbus csm miniwin decoration transset
place state wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom
scale move resize place switcher trailfocus water bs &
dbus-launch cgwd --replace &
fi

Mine is even more simple and works like a charm...

Most plugins are loaded by default in the latest compiz. You can use csm to turn on the others later.

It starts xgl and compiz with nvidia-specific settings
