Add the following section to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf (or wherever it is on
your system).
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
# Option "RENDER" "Enable"
EndSection
I have RENDER commented out as I have an NVIDIA card and RENDER
is automaticallly enabled RenderAccel is true:
Option "RenderAccel" "True"
If you have a NVIDIA card (and are using the nvidia module and not nv) you
probably want:
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "True"
Otherwise GLX is disabled when Composite is enabled.
NVIDIA docs say:
Composite also causes problems with other driver components:
o Xv cannot draw into pixmaps that have been redirected offscreen and
will draw directly onto the screen instead. For some programs you can
work around this issue by using an alternative video driver. For
example, "mplayer -vo x11" will work correctly, as will "xine -V xshm".
If you wish to use Xv, you can simply disable the compositing manager
and re-enable it when you are finished.
