compiz-fusion :
i have a  integrated card intel 945G , and i install the driver  'pacman -S xf86-video-intel, then got DRI , install compiz by 'pacman -S compiz-fusion' , it LOOKs fine ... but the keyboard seems no active , can't input any word such as in terminal , and some window can't completely paint out .. i try to find something . .. i type

LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 compiz --replace &

gotta no info ...
maybe problem with xorg.conf , i copy it from my ubuntu , and compiz worked fine there ...
here is my xorg.conf : http://iblicf.blog.ubuntu.org.cn/2007/1 … archlinux/

does somebody use intel945G video card ?

at command :
i use an at command to remind me Water heating , it's my Called pot , i found it useless , maybe need some service ?

/etc/fstab :

none                  /dev/pts      devpts    defaults            0      0
none                   /dev/shm      tmpfs     defaults            0      0

Welcome.

/var/log/ folder has all the logs you need.

Compiz seems to suck with the latest xorg server, you could search the compiz forum for more help.
And theres also many existing threads in this forum.

/dev/pts:
pseudo-ttys.
The device that is related to the virtual tty connections on your
system.

/dev/shm:

Baffling , compiz works again , everything seems fine ,,

just now , i download the intel driver 2.20 and try to make install ... failue!
then i have to restore the driver by `pacman -S xf86-video-intel` , magic ... all done, so strange ! maybe lucky , but i still confused

thanks Mikko777
