Hi,
you probably have got this question already several times.
Please point me to the answer if it is already posted somewhere.
I couldn't find it though in any of th obvious places.
I am trying to get compiz to work on my IBM Thinkpad T42.
I installed openSuSE 10.3 with all compiz packages.
The T42 has a ATI Radeon 7500 card which is old but apparently
supported. SAX also says that 3D acceleration is active.
As far as I understand, I don't need to specifically install
and enable Xgl with this card.
When I execute "glxgears" to test the xgl capability, this
seems to work nicely. It gives
2964 frames in 5.0 seconds = 592.636 FPS
But how do I actually activate compiz?
The automatic activation doesn't seem to work.
When I run fusion-icon, I get
fusion-icon
* Detected Session: kde
* Searching for installed applications...
* No GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap with direct rendering context
... present with indirect rendering, exporting: LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1
* Setting option Indirect Rendering to True
* Using the GTK Interface
* Decorator "" is invalid.
* Setting decorator to KDE Window Decorator ("kde-window-decorator
--replace")
* Starting Compiz
... executing: compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp
--indirect-rendering
compiz: Trying '/usr/$LIB/libIndirectGL.so.1'
compiz (core) - Fatal: No composite extension
What exactly is missing here?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Dirk
