[gentoo-user] Compiz-Fusion

[Ted Ozolins]

Anyone using compiz-fusion on this list? I'm putting together a system
I'll be using to demo linux. compiz-fusion appears to be the "eye-candy"
 that would make a demo shine. I see that its in portage (masked) any
gotchas I should be aware of before proceeding?

I've been using it for months with NVidia and Intel drivers; not a
problem. Well, with NVidia
you need to unload the v4l module for X.org, otherwise it crash X; but
that's the only issue.

Also, I recommend to grab the fusion-icon package from the xeffects overlay.

Just out of curiosity... can anyone say why are the packages still masked?

Compiz-fusion still have problems with due screens tho. Menu pots up
very slowly. It's been discussed quite a lot on the internet, you can
google for it.

I've been using it (and vanilla compiz before it) for several months
with nvidia drivers.  No problems.

Hi all,

I try to set up compiz-fussion with GNOME  desktop using information
from wiki page ( http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Compiz-Fusion). Compiz
seems to work , however, I experience the rendering problem and the
title bar of opened applications are missing. I am using compiz version
0.8.6.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Hung

Did you set 'window decorator' to 'gtk-window-decorator --replace' or
'emerald --replace' in compiz?

Thanks a lot. After I set windowmanager to compiz everything seems to be
OK now.
