 Posted: Sat Sep 23, 2006 4:33 am Post subject: [SOLVED]Problem with XGL and KDE 3.5 |
 |
|
Hi! Today I though i'll give XGL a try and ended up with a strage problem.
Everything is fine without xgl but when I switch to xgl and restart xserver, I get a white desktop. Yup a white desktop. Everything seems to be in place (ie my panels, desktop icons etc) but the entire desktop is white. All programs start but even they are white. Also it looks like all the xgl effects are there (3d cube works. With all four faces white. BTW the top and bottom do have image properly displayed )
Here is my emere --info

hallo,
after emerge XGL you must reinstall 'nvidia-drivers '
and
' eselect opengl set nvidia '
and more info please -> ' xorg.conf '
here are some infos http://wiki.gentoo-xeffects.org/Main_Page

Already emerged my nvidia-drivers twice 
But the problem persists.
As far as I know, I stuck to what's given in the wiki. I am using compiz-quinnstrorm from xgl-cofee trunk
Any more ideas ? |

hallo,
how did you start XGL 
my /usr/kde/3.5/share/config/kdm/kdmrc :
ServerCmd=/usr/bin/Xgl -br -ac -accel xv:pbo -accel glx:pbuffer
ServerTimeout=30
and
/etc/env.d/99kde-env :
KDEDIRS=/usr
CONFIG_PROTECT=/usr/share/config
KDEWM=compiz-manager
#KDE_IS_PRELINKED=1

kdmrc
ServerCmd=/usr/bin/Xgl -br -ac -accel glx:pbuffer -accel xv
ServerTimeout=30
Tried both
KDEWM=compiz-decorator
and KDEWM=compiz-manager
compiz-decorator
| Code: |
## Start compiz or compiz-quinnstorm
## compiz --replace gconf &
dbus-launch compiz --replace dbus csm &
sleep 2
## Start gnome-window-decorator or cgwd
## gnome-window-decorator &
dbus-launch cgwd --replace &
|
BTW if i use KDEWM=compiz-manager, all the effects are gone but desktop shows up correctly with its window decorations.
and if i use compiz-decorator as given in the wiki, the white desktop shows up with all the effects.
I just remembered, dbus was compiled with out gtk support, as it was not compiling with it. Does this make any difference ? |

There is a similar thread here
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-500902.html
And some solution is provided here
http://www.compiz.net/topic-4576-compiz-quinn-white-window-contents-latest
Will try that out and tell
A post in the compiz formus
| Code: | | The problem is caused by recent API change in mesa; Since compiz-quinn includes its own old version of mesa, it can't work with Xgl built with new mesa. There is nothing wrong with xgl's or compiz's code, or your environment. |
So I just have to wait ? and the patch he was talkin abt
| Code: |
I fixed the problem, patch =>

(change "-L/opt/mesa-xgl-cvs/lib" to the mesa lib directory you use. Remove the option if you're not using nVIDIA driver)
And remove the /mesa directory in compiz

Save the patch in files folder and digest the ebuild.
One thing im not sure of is this line

He said use the path to your mesa libraries. But I find only nvidia(usr/lib/opengl/nvidia/lib) and xorg-x11(usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib) libraries on my system and don't know where to find mesa libraries .
Anyone has any more ideas on this ?
