 Posted: Wed Aug 09, 2006 8:55 am Post subject: Compiz/XGL error [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I was using the howto for XGL on Gentoo-wiki
| Code: | quatre@q-desktop ~ $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/ DISPLAY=:1 compiz gconf
compiz: Couldn't open display :1
quatre@q-desktop ~ $ DISPLAY=:1 gnome-window-decorator
(gnome-window-decorator:19318): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
quatre@q-desktop ~ $ DISPLAY=:1 xterm
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :1 |
Any ideas why it's doing that? I'll post more information as it's requested
EDIT:
I just had to re-emerge xorg-x11 with the proper drivers and use gdm instead of kdm because for some strange reason xgl locks kdm

are you sure XGL is running?
could you post :
| Code: | | ps aux | grep -i Xgl |

And you're sure it's running on display 1 (you'll get 0 unless you tell it otherwise).

My comp didn't work on display :1, I had to use :0 to get it working..

| Code: | quatre@q-desktop ~ $ ps aux | grep -i Xgl
quatre 18977 0.0 0.0 1500 476 pts/1 R+ 04:38 0:00 grep -i Xgl |
I should also mention that when XGL starts, through xglstart, it just gives a gray screen for an indefinite time like its loading up kdm, gdm or xdm
Also, for :0 I tried that first and I get
| Code: | quatre@q-desktop ~ $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/ DISPLAY=:0 compiz gconf
compiz: No composite extension |

Afaik, composite is an X(gl/xorg?) extension, but it's perfectly possible I'm wrong.

I went through all of those. I was about to post
| Code: | quatre@q-desktop ~ $ Xgl :1 -ac -accel glx:pbuffer -accel xv:pbuffer
_XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6
_XSERVTransOpen: transport open failed for inet6/q-desktop:1

What kind of hardware are you trying to run it on?

I just had to re-emerge my xorg-x11 and/or change my xorg.conf to include the correct driver. Just one more thing before I can call this solved.
KDM freezes and the graphics distort upon loading. However, startxgl works BUT ONLY AS ROOT. Here is what I changed/added:
In File: /usr/kde/3.5/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
| Code: | ServerTimeout=30
ServerCmd=/usr/bin/Xgl -br -ac -accel glx:pbuffer -accel xv:pbuffer |
In File: /etc/env.d/99kde-env
| Code: | | KDEWM=compiz-decorator |
Made this file: /usr/local/bin/compiz-decorator
| Code: | compiz --replace gconf &
sleep 2
gnome-window-decorator & |
And ran
| Code: | | chmod +x /usr/local/bin/compiz-decorator |
