Compiz >=0.5, KDE and fglrx

Hi,

have anyone managed it to work together?

I'm getting

compiz (core): GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing
compiz (core): Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core): No manageable screens found on display :1
X Error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) 3
  Major opcode:  2
  Minor opcode:  0
  Resource id:  0x3600187

while beryl is working fine.

Please post your full scripts so wiki can be updated after problem will be solved.

Re: Compiz >=0.5, KDE and fglrx

I am running compiz-git not 0.5 with XGL + fglrx + KDE without problems, I followed the wiki.

My compiz startup script:

#!/bin/bash
# This script checks to see if XGL is running before starting compiz & 

if [ `ps -A | grep Xgl | wc -l` == "1" ]; then
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mesa-xgl/lib/ \ 
LD_PRELOAD=/opt/mesa-xgl/lib/libGL.so.1.2 \
compiz --replace --indirect-rendering \
glib gconf dbus &
fi

You don't have the glib plugin because it is only present on git, dbus is optional too.

I use gconf because I also have GNOME installed in this machine but you probably can use the ini backend.

Hi, thanks for prompt answer. I'm compiling mesa-xgl right now.

Could you tell me, how do you use this script to start KDE?

Just like the wiki  Method 2 - New KDM entry starts KDE with XGL.
