Hi to all.
I have installed Compiz with pacman package manager, but when i try to execute Compiz with the command:
compiz --replace
I obtain the following error message:
compiz (core) - Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0
The windows are now without the border and I must to restore Kwin (I use KDE4.2)
I have already search for this problem in and out this forum but I didn't find a solution.
I have a Intel 82852 graphic card.
There is my xorg.conf

What happens when you try to run:
compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp --indirect-rendering
if that doesn't work you may need to do:
export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1
compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp --indirect-rendering
Offline
If I execute this command
compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp --indirect-rendering
i don't have any kind of error message, but the border of the windows are not present..
The only message I obtained from this command is
Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0".
but I think that this is a problem not correlated with compiz..
The same thing if I execute the second piece of code that you posted..there are no different..I try also to execute then the command:
emerald --replace
but without any kind of result..always no borders..

Did you install compiz or compiz-fusion + addons?
Did you try...
- starting using the fusion-icon?
- disabling and re-enabling "effects/window-decorations" in compiz-manager?
Does that give any errors?
Offline
If you get no errors when you start Compiz, you might want to try and move a window by holding alt and dragging the window, if this works then that's usually an indication that the Compiz window manager is running but a window decorator is not. This has been my experience, you can use either the gtk-window-decorator or the kde-window-decorator iirc.

I tried also fusion-icon that, in theory, automated the process..But when I execute fusion-icon I obtained this output:

After I start Compiz, i'm not be able to move a window by holding ALT..So it seems that Compiz is not working or something like that..
If I start compiz-manager and then I try to use kde4-window-decorator I obtain the following output:
Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0".

All the discussions that I've read about this problem are not useful to solve the problem..it is almost impossible

That's really strange... I've seen these errors a lot with older versions of compiz or video drivers, but that never seemed to stop compiz from running. They might just not mean anything at all.
How does it look like inside ccsm / do you even get there? It almost looks as if it wouldn't find the plugins at all.
Did you try to reinstall compiz-fusion-plugins-main or even better the whole compiz-fusion-kde metapackage?
Are emerald and/or the compiz version of kde4-decorator installed and visible in the fusion-icon context menu?
Do the basic plugins like "window decorations", "drag windows", "resize windows" show up? If so: Does the console you started ccsm in say anything if you deactivate one of them and reactivate it?

Blasco, I am having EXACTLY the same problem as you.

ccsm doesn't work! when I start it, i obtain this:
Info: No sexy-python package found, don't worry it's optional.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/ccsm", line 100, in <module>

File "/usr/lib/python2.6/locale.py", line 494, in setlocale
return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting
The compiz-fusion-plugins are correctly installed and the emerald and kde4-decorator are visible in the fusion-icon menu..but I obtain always the error message above reported..
SOLVED: I solved the problem by running ccsm (I easily solved the problem "unsupported locale setting") I see that ALL plugins are disable..I have to enable from ccsm the emerald window decoration and so finally I obtain my windows decorations without problem! I don't know why if I run from terminal compiz and emerald (before I solved the problem with ccsm) they doesn't work.

I'm also having problems with no window border now. But when I activate them in ccsm I get a window border but I can't move the windows at all.

You need to enable "Move Window" in CCSM. Just figured it out myself.

What a strange thing not to have this activated as default. Someone must be drunk over there
Thank's for the help, that solved everything
