I have to get to school now, but I will be out in a few hours (last final so I only am there for 2 hours). Once I am back home, I will fix the patch. I had to delete cvs-src/* and now it does fail.

Maybe i overseen something, but is there a solution for Swing applications in Xgl ? I use few of them and all have problems displaying their contents (ie i get a window with background color of app, but without controls, menu etc). Of course i can start them in Xnest, where they run fine, but Xnest is too much unstable for me (it crashes for example when i move to another "desktop" via Ctrl+Alt+Left or Right - not allways, but often).

nesl247, I know you haven't updated the xgl CVS ebuild lately but I just built the latest with a renamed xgl ebuild. The xgl-wrap-sdk.patch failed with that update, so I simply commented that epatch out of the ebuild. Later I looked at the patch and the source, and it looks like the patch has been included upstream, so next time you update this you can drop that patch from the ebuild entirely.

Thanks again!

arghl, why doesnt this work any more? :-(

since i upgraded my kernel few days before nothing fglrx related works any more. my suspend to ram is not working any more, no Xgl works (screen freezes so i cannot see what happens and have to restart my pc) and no restart of a normal x session. everything messed up by upgrading from 2.6.15-r[dont know] to 2.6.16-r8 :-(

anyone out there who can help me with this? :-/

i took the same sources (gentoo-sources) and used oldconfig to build my kernel, so it should not be that great change in graphical things... i thought :-(

edit: atm i am using the radeon driver, which works much better. but i still cannot use suspend to ram any more and i cannot make use of my cards powerstates, what is possible with the fglrx

Yup, I saw that yesterday too. I didn't have the time to file a bug report though. I worked around it by commenting that line out in the ebuild (there is nothing intel in my system). I got a similar problem emerging gdm from the overlay applying the timeout patch (which is already included in the release in portage) so I used the GDM from portage. If nobody else has already, I'll look for a place to file a bug report.

I set the timeout in my config file and it worked. I beleive it was included as of 2.14.1. See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337670.

Yeah, it is most likely included as 2.14.5 is in portage, and that bug was closed way back in april.

Just a curious, when will compiz support application mode, I enabled trailfocus plugin, but when I use gimp, when I open an effective dialog, the main editor window will be set transparent, I can't view the preview clearly.

So is there a plan to support application mode in compiz?
