PKGBUILDs: Compiz-0.9 (compiz++)

Hmm, glibmm as a dependency perhaps ?

Anyone tried compiz++ with the latest nvidia/nvidia-utils?
I'm doing a fresh install and compiz crashes when I turn on the opengl extension (only reports a segmentation fault).
It doesn't crash with nuoveau, but looks horribly wrong (black triangles everywhere).

Just for the record, I finally figured out how to solve this, and is fucking weird.

So, for some reason, it seems that on my computer compiz crashes when initializing the opengl plugin if I'm using the official nvidia driver and I haven't set any background image for xorg.

Yeah, I'm dead serious, a fucking background image. Setting up a single color with xsetroot does not work, it must be a background image set up with a program such as feh.

WTF...?

i don't know which Nvidia Card you have, but i am using the Nvidia 9400GT card - the latest Nvidia-ck(270.41) with compiz++ - which i build every few days, and I'm also running the latest X (1.10.902?) and it all works perfectly.

I had problems using the AUR compiz++ build, so i don't use it. I'm not sure why that was, but i was getting segmentation faults from that as well......Instead, I just keep the compiz++/addons scripts (the same one that Ubuntu users are often using) in a folder on my desktop. It actually builds properly and works (as long as all dependencies are installed). the beauty of doing it this way too, is that you can add plugins to the script, to build from git. then keeping your experimental/unsupported plugins up-to-date is easy.

your issue with having to setup a background, is crazy. seems very fishy

I've just installed all compiz++ packages, except the emerald++ won't work. Here's the error I get:

Any fix?

I've tried to install this too, everything compile fine without emerald++, the same error as you have. But i installed it also month ago so it works for me in an 'old version'

I Don't speak C/C++ but i had a look at the patch and the file in question and it looked to me like the lines that would have been changed have already been changed in more or less the way the patch would've changed them. So I just built Emerald without the patch and it runs OK. I'm far from an expert though so YMMV.

Thanks, that worked!

I decided to try out the 09 versions to see if there's any difference between them, but I can't install the extra plugins:

On the AUR page, there's this:

    libnotify support is fixed upstream in the git version with this commit:
    http://gitweb.compiz.org/?p=compiz/plugins/notification;a=commit;h=2faf69286967110d2f96ef093f453c0407ccfe13

How would I include that in the PKGBUILD so that it would work?

It seems the problem still exists in 0.9.4. Just add the following to the cmake command to disable the notification plugin:

-DCOMPIZ_DISABLE_PLUGIN_NOTIFICATION=On
