Hi!

I installed Xgl like it was described in http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_XGL. Everything works without any problems, I can start Xgl in a new window and every effect works. I mean when I type the following commands everything works great:
Code:
Xgl :1 -ac -accel glx:pbuffer -accel xv:pbuffer
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/ DISPLAY=:1 compiz gconf
DISPLAY=:1 gnome-window-decorator
DISPLAY=:1 xterm

Now my problem: I modyfied the kdmrc:
Code:
ServerCmd=/usr/bin/Xgl -br -kb -ac -accel glx:pbuffer -accel xv:pbuffer

And I modified the Xstartup:
Code:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/lib compiz --replace decoration wobbly fade minimiz$
sleep 3
gnome-window-decorator &

Afterall I rebooted the system and when Xgl starts I get a black screen. The mouse is shown and I can move it, the mouse pointer's icon is the "working"-icon... But kde is not working...
So I updated my xgl-coffee overlay with "svn up" and re-emerged the following apps:
Code:
emerge mesa glitz xgl compiz

-> no improvement...
I also tried to copy "startx" to "startxgl" and modify it -> reboot -> startxgl -> black screen...
At this point I don't know what I could change, I would be very glad about any idea or suggestion for improvement...

Thx!

ok, I get the following error message by kdm:
Code:
kdm :0[7049]: Hung in XOpenDisplay (:0), aborting
kdm :0[7049]: cannot connect to :0
kdm :0[7045]: Display :0 cannot be opened

but I don't know how to fix that...

If the first one works, and the second doesn't, then you can compare commands, and notice that there is one variable that is different ':1".

Try this for kdmrc:
Code:
ServerCmd=/usr/bin/Xgl :1 -br -kb -ac -accel glx:pbuffer -accel xv:pbuffer

Thanks for your suggestion, but I had no success... I think I will change from kde to gnome (-;
