ok, ive tried and tried and tried, to no avail.
i already have the plugin, but im trying rebuild kdesktop with the transparency patch, followed this guide > http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=59864&forumpage=1
everything was good till this error -
| Code: | /bin/sh ../libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=compile g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I../kcontrol/background -I../libkonq -I../kdmlib -I/usr/kde/3.5/include -I/usr/qt/3/include -I. -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -D_LARGE_FILES=1 -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -O2 -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -D_GNU_SOURCE -MT kdesktopapp.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/kdesktopapp.Tpo -c -o kdesktopapp.lo kdesktopapp.cpp
kdesktopapp.cpp:95:27: error: kdesktopapp.moc: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [kdesktopapp.lo] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/kdebase-3.5.9/kdesktop'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
|
so i added kdesktopapp.moc (a blank file) make clean, redid ./configure under the kdebase folder, went back into kdesktop/ and executed make again, and still the same error? a little help would be appreciated

Sure it isn't. You are patching with external stuff and compiling by hand. There's no way gentoo can give support for that. |

Be sure that ~/.kde/share/config/kdesktoprc has this new section:
| Code: | [Background Common]
BackgroundOpacity=0
|
Once that is working, you'll need the wallpaper plugin for Compiz-Fusion (available in the desktop-effects overlay). Designate images within the plugin in this format:
| Code: | file:///PATH/TO/IMAGE/image1.jpg:100;
file:///PATH/TO/IMAGE/image2.jpg:100;
file:///PATH/TO/IMAGE/image3.jpg:100;
file:///PATH/TO/IMAGE/image4.jpg:100;
|
Now you need to start kde with transparency enabled, so place this script in ~/.kde/Autostart/
| Code: | #! /bin/bash
# Kills KDesktop & after is re-launched with the command "kdesktop --bg-transparency".
# Should be loaded at the start of KDE load.
# Be sure that .kde/share/config/kdesktoprc has this new section:
# [Background Common]
# BackgroundOpacity=90 (0 = fully transparent / 100 = opaque)
local pid
pid=$(ps ax |grep "kdesktop " |grep -v grep|awk '{print $1;}')
echo -n "Killing Kdesktop (process $pid)... "
kill -9 $pid
echo "Killed."
kdesktop --bg-transparency 2> /dev/null
echo "Kdesktop ON with transparency support for Compiz's Wallpaper plugin)"
|
Voilá, a different desktop background for each face of the compiz cube.

patch failed because there was no kdesktopapp.h or kdesktopapp.cpp so i made them myself, and compiling by hand again.
