pacman -S pkgconfig

Cub69 · 2006-09-20 17:31:22

Yea, I found that out -- stupid mistake. New install so it wasn't already there.

Anyways, now I have another problem.

It's working great with the default setup and gnome-window-decorator. I've changed that to cgwd --replace and now my frame bars, etc. have disappeared.

I have also installed the cgwd-cvs-themes, and tried using gcompizthemer -- I see a bunch of different themes there but how do I change to a theme? From what I read so far, it should have been just by starting cgwd?

Thanks
Cub

fredp · 2006-09-20 20:22:15

Well, now I got compiz-aiglx running. Thanks @all who helped me!

J_Zar · 2006-09-20 21:03:44

I fixed the pkgconfig issue with adding a makedepend. Just dumped the package to 20060920 snapshot.

@cub69: I have some dbus issues to solve. Then I'll try to make work Cgwd and I'll post my results in the Wiki.

Cub69 · 2006-09-20 22:15:48

Thanks -- I just tried cgwd rather then cgwd-cvs and both give the same issue.

If I can help with anything, let me know.

This is the reason because cgwd does not load themes. It probably requires a patch for compiz. I'll look at the problem.
However you are right. Cgwd-cvs is a package Quinn-patched for Xgl while Cgwd is Ubuntu-patched and it has a chance to run with Aiglx.

once · 2006-09-20 23:12:35

again, no one can help ?

Cub69 · 2006-09-20 23:34:29

Once: Check the wiki -- it really helped me. The troubleshooting on the bottom was helpful too. I had to perform each of the steps there!

Cub

Cub69 · 2006-09-20 23:36:15

J_Zar: I used the package for cgwd-cvs from the wiki page, not the aur one. The one from the wiki doesn't have the same dependencies.

Regardless, broken

Cub

J_Zar · 2006-09-20 23:48:50

I made work Cgwd with a patch but there is still something wrong. Working at the starting-scripts I broke my cgwd && gnome-window-decorator settings (I think) and now decorator does not load. I was working on loading / unloading the compiz dbus plugin. This time, it seems not to be a problem of gconf keys.
Mmmm... Someone with ideas?

once · 2006-09-21 02:31:14

ok, now i got compiz-aiglx run under terminal console after gnome started, then compiz work!!

[bin]$ compiz-aiglx
compiz: No stencil buffer. Clipping of transformed windows is not going to be correct when screen is transformed.
compiz: water: GL_ARB_fragment_program is missing

any idea?
and how should i put compiz-aiglx in .xinitrc ???

ps. gnome user

An other easy way to install compiz + cgwd + AIGLX

* Your xorg must be configured for AIGLX

* install these packages from AUR :
compiz 0.0.13.57_0ubuntu1-2 (I removed mesa-xgl-cvs and glproto-git dependencies)
compiz-plugins 0.36_0ubuntu1-1
cgwd 0.69_0ubuntu1-2
cgwd-themes-cvs 20060918-1
csm 0.12_0ubuntu1-1

* launch compiz + cgwd :
dbus-launch compiz-start

configure compiz plugins :
dbus-launch csm

configure cgwd themes :
dbus-launch gcompizthemer

carnival · 2006-09-21 12:41:55

If I understand correctly, it's possible to get this working without gconf or any gnome deps now? The AUR builds all seem to rely on them, i'm not sure what I can omit - anyone done this?

Cub69 · 2006-09-21 12:51:20

In the wiki there is a link to a compiz-cvs that doesn't have all of the dependencies. I used that one and got all working, except the cgwd themes.

J_Zar · 2006-09-21 17:30:59

I've updated the package with Cgwd patch and the Wiki. Now you are able to use Cgwd and themes as usual in Compiz.

Thanks! Have you got csm to work with your compiz-aiglx package?

J_Zar · 2006-09-21 22:19:17

Actually csm does not work. The compiz cvs seems not to have the csm plugin. So I suppose it is a Quinn patch, and I don't like the idea of the Quinn patch.
