compiz on debian, no window borders shown
Hi guys:
I installed the compiz on my debian (lenny/sid, 2.6.24, xfce4), but after I executed "compiz --replace", the following messages are returned:
Checking for Xgl: not present. Detected PCI ID for VGA: 01:00.0 0300: 10de:042b (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Checking for texture_from_pixmap: present. Checking for non power of two support: present. Checking for Composite extension: present. Comparing resolution (1280x800) to maximum 3D texture size (8192): Passed.
Checking for nVidia: present. Checking for FBConfig: present. Checking for Xgl: not present. ...........
the 3D desktop is working(rotating), but without the window borders, which means one window is overlaped with each other. Thus I can not resize or move it. Can anyone tell the problems?
I installed the following related packages(maybe some already there not listed) and attached the display card info with xorg.conf: #######compiz##############: compiz install compiz-core install

Re: compiz on debian, no window borders shown
I've had lots of trouble with compiz on lenny, most of them can be solved by downloading the latest driver for you graphics card and installing fusion-icon. fusion-icon will call compiz with the parameters it judges to be right, and most
of the time, they are indeed correct. You should also try installing emerald (although it's not in the official debian repos anymore). On Thu, May 15, 2008 at 6:11 PM, Michael Yang < michael.yxf@...> wrote:

It seems to that your Nvidia GLX isn't working, try running 'glxgears' (in the mesa-utils package) from a terminal, this problably won't work then.
Check your Nvidia X Server Settings / OpenGL/GLX Information. If No GLX Extensions are shown in the top right box you'll have to update your driver. I use version 169.12 and everything works fine, but you'll have to check if your card is supprted. For some more info on your xorg.conf check this link: http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=7940
Also, I start compiz using 'compiz --replace ccp'

IMHO, the compiz packages have a missing dependency on the compiz-fusion
packages. Without compiz-fusion plugins, compiz isn't decorating the
windows properly or breaking window management in some other way.
In short, I had the same problem, installed compiz-fusion-plugins and
compiz-fusion-plugins-extra, and things seemed to work after that.

I have installed fusion-icon and emerald as well, it seems now working well except some issues on auto -startup

I used the NVIDIA-Linux-x86-169.09-pkg1.run as the driver of my graphic card, it seems it's working ok by running "glxgears", with output: 15638 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3127.518 FPS
.................................
It's working fine now after I installed the extra packages(full package from a different source), but I can launch it only by "compiz --replace". The other launching ways like 'compiz --replace ccp', 'compiz --replace gconf & gtk-window-decorator&'

Thanks a lot, bro! I purged the original related packages on my system, and changed the source to: deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/shames/debian-sid/desktopfx/unstable/ ./

but nothing happended after I entered xfce4. For now I have to use "compiz --replace" as the auto-started application for xfce4 Is there any ways to launch 'compiz' upon startup, instead of starting xfwm first and 'compiz --replace' it?
2) "emerald --replace" can only be started up successfully after "compiz --replace"
I thought I can only start "emerald --replace" without executing "compiz --replace", is it correct? Now when I want to use emerald, the error message indicating (emerald:6034): Wnck-WARNING **: Property _NET_WM_NAME contained invalid UTF-8
Can I start emerald as I do for compiz?? Thanks a lot. M.Y.
