Thx again Unibox for the hint. I tried the LiveCD Kororaa.... LiveCD with XGL based on Gentoo. Awesome stuff. It won't help you set up your computer but you can see what the end result on your pc could be  Allow you to test safely.
Please use torrent below as main website is under heavy load....

Hi, I'd like to ask for an advice how to compile xgl. I gives me this message since revision 44. Any help would be appreciated.

The new ati drivers are out. I got my distorted screen in my ATI M9 fixed, but still with some bugs near mouse position, etc, but installed ati drivers manually.
Try it out at ATI page. |

thats old. use xgl-0.0.1_alpha20060307 in most recent overlay.
BTW - Changes to the way ebuilds work. The DATE following alpha in the mesa, xgl and compiz packages now pull cvs from that date instead of whatever is most recent. If something breaks, you can simplay change the date, re-digest and remerge.
Example:
mesa-6.5.0_alpha20060308 breaks?
cd /usr/local/xgl-coffee/media-libs/mesa
cp mesa-6.5.0_alpha20060308 mesa-6.5.0_alpha20060306
ebuild mesa-6.5.0_alpha20060306 digest
emerge =mesa-6.5.0_alpha20060306

Can someone please explain the difference between TRANSSET-DF-5 and TRANS-INACTIVE-CONFIG?
I would like to implement some transparency, with XGL and compiz, but want to know which handles the best and what looks the best 
btw: Thanks to GentlemanFinn for your help.

I'm still getting screen distortion with compiz. I have a Mobility 9000 ie M9. Now glxcompmgr isn't working either. |

AFAIK (haven't tried trans-inactive yet, but I intend to) trans-inactive is an automatic script to set the transparency of inactive windows; transset-df is a manual utility for altering the transparency of a single window.

ARGH!!!
I'm trying to install Xgl+compiz and it keeps on failing...
xgl gives me this error...
I'm using the installerscripts from the xgl-coffee tree, that I changed so it was suitable for an ati video card.
Following the howto also keeps producing these errors. It's driving me mad...
I have the newest CVS-build
I actually managed to get the software compiled yesterday, but when I tryed to start it, Compiz would complain it couldn't find any manageble windows... |

Put these in your [Device] section in xorg.conf:
Option "RenderAccel" "on"
Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps"
Option "XaaNoScanlineImageWriteRect"
Option "XaaNoScanlineCPUToScreenColorExpandFill"
Fixed it for me, if we're talking about the same distortion. Oh, and it's an xorg 7 problem, not Xgl in that case. |

After a relentless run of trial and error, I found more things that makes running Xgl rather trivial on other hardware.
As far as I know, getting Xgl to work in windowed/nested mode is easy and simple. It seem to work fairly well, although not without some glitches. However, trying to get it to run stand-alone isn't easy... nor is it really functional. First, I ended up trying a variety of things... and here's what I am able to do:
| Code: | # Xgl :1 -ac &
# DISPLAY=:1 gnome-terminal & |
What I can do is start up Xgl barebone and fire up gnome-terminal. Executing the script described in the wiki would dump me back into console. From the gnome-terminal, I then issued the following command:
| Code: | # LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/ compiz --replace gconf &
# gnome-window-decorator & |
From here I am able to get window decorations up and moving the window(s) around is possible. I was also able to switch between workspaces (Ctrl-Alt-Left/Right arrow) However, this is where it all ends. Attempting to start anything useful up would cause the Xgl server to SegFault. So I end up back at the console again. I have been continually trying bit by bit to get this to work. But I wonder if the i915 Mesa driver is just simply buggy. Still hoping there are some more Intel graphics users out there who may have some insights.

Yeah, you are probably right, but mesa-6.5.0_alpha20060308 wouldn't compile with VIDEO_CARDS=ati either. Had to revert to mesa-6.5.0_alpha20060306 |

Same here... 
I did everything like it was told in Gentoo Wiki but I get only white screen. most of the effects seem to work how ever.. only everytwindow including nautilus desktop is all white I cannot see text or anything... Anyideas? Recompiling XGL with depencies do not solve this.

Those options had no effect. Actually they are ignored by the fglrx driver. |

I pull my ask for help back. I did update portage overlay and recompiled everything... This time against Nvidia libraries... Sorry for not realizing at first that mesa changes itself back to xorg-x11 libaries instead of nvidia ones...  I am so happy. This is so super... I think that Novell really has given something spesial to us.

Have had this problem for a few days now, and finally isolated it down to compiz doing something strange. Whenever I run one of the startxgl scripts the freshly made window (or the whole system when I adjust gdm config) becomes unresponsive. The mouse still works however. It's like the framebuffer stops working after putting the very first frame, it's like a repainter not repainting. The only thing I can do, is shut the window down. I don't notice any critical bugs.
So I broke the startup chain down to
| Code: | | Xgl :1 -ac -accel xv:pbuffer -accel glx:pbuffer & |
New window appears, mouse works, funny raster-like background.
| Code: | | DISPLAY=:1 gnome-terminal & |
Terminal appears, all menus are clickable, can type and start other stuff from within this terminal.
| Code: | | LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/ compiz |
Typed from within this terminal on display 1, everything becomes unresponsive. --replace gconf doesn't help, upgrading xgl/compiz neither.
And that's the furthest I've gotten with locating where the problem would be.
Any ideas on where to look next for some errors/problems, or a solution? |

How about you try to start compiz with at least the minimum required plugins?
| Code: | | LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/ compiz --replace decoration wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom scale move resize place switcher & |
and afterwards do
| Code: | | gnome-window-decorator & |
For a normally working window-manager you nead at least the plugin decoration, move and resize. Decoration is needed or gnome-window-decorator will be unable to draw a window-decoration, move is (right!) for moving the windows and resize is (right) for resizing the windows. If you don't have a window-decoration and you can neither move nor resize your window I guess your system seems quite "frozen".

trans-inactive-config is depreicated. use trans-inactive
trans-inactive runs a program that automatically sets opacities in active/inactive windows (so you can have all inactive windows 50% transparent and the active one fully opaque for example).
transset-df-5 + xbindkeys allows you to alter the opacity of a window with your mouse wheel
the compiz-plugin-opacity does similar thing to transset, but only works on active window and also has some odd scroll effects that dont occur when using transset

Sorry, forgot to mention that I tried compiz without the whole --replace parameter string because with it, the same effects occured, and I figured it maybe was due to one of those plugins.
So
| Code: | | LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/ compiz --replace decoration wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom scale move resize place switcher & |
doesn't work, and
| Code: | | LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/ compiz --replace decoration move resize & |
neither.
And it's not just moving, resizing or not having window-decoration that leads me to believe Xgl freezes. I can't type, click on anything, and the window doesn't redraw after being moved out of my screen and put back in. As a result, I can't run "gnome-window-decorator &" in that terminal, and "DISPLAY=:1 gnome-window-decorator &" in my main terminal doesn't do anything either. |

http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html indicates that they haven't.
A little bit of patience may be needed; the Windows drivers do come out first.

All my applications are distorted/displaying artifacts when opacity is set to 100% running with Xgl. If I reduce (using transset) the distortion disapears.
Here's a screenie showing the distortion:

Hardware:
| Code: | | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M10 NT [FireGL Mobility T2] (rev 80) |
Has anyone experienced this and been able to resolve it?
I see that new ATI-drivers are out, but they are not in portage. |

Great work! Running near perfectly w/ an NVidia 6200 Go. I think I had one crash yesterday when I left my laptop to run to lunch. I came back to find it at the GDM login screen instead of the Gnome session where I had left it... My best guess is that an opengl screensaver came on but the logs didn't provide much detail.
One tip: if you update compiz and find that it seg faults check your plugins. Make sure that if you are using the opacity plugin that you rebuild it after rebuilding compiz (or disable it). |
