help compiling compiz plugins
Im having some trouble trying to compile the tile plugin for compiz. A few weeks ago I compiled it using "make" followed by "make install". But now there is no makefile, only a CMakeLists.txt and the plugin is written in c++. Ive tried searching but I havent found any good guides on how to make this work. I already installed cmake and tried doing it that way, no go. Any advice?

Re: help compiling compiz plugins
Try
ccmake .
I did that and it took me to some GUI type thing that said something about an empty cache. When I tried the configure option it failed on me.

Re: help compiling compiz plugins
If you could provide a link to the thing you're trying to compile, I'd be glad to help. I tried googling it earlier, but I didn't find any leads.

Sorry Killa, heres the link:
http://gitweb.compiz-fusion.org/?p=comp … ;a=summary
Its the first snapshot on there, but I think you might have to have compiz installed for this to work. Not sure though, but thanks for all the help!

Re: help compiling compiz plugins
Well, I've tried everything I can, but I can't get it to compile, either. Sorry, you're going to have to find someone else to help.:(

Re: help compiling compiz plugins
Compiz is in a state of flux at the moment and compiling from git is not recommended - see http://status.compiz-fusion.org/ and http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/c … 03284.html. In the meantime, the tile plugin is part of the compiz-plugins-unsupported source package, for which there is a PKGBUILD in AUR (compiz-fusion-plugins-unsupport).
