desktop effects

2009-08-20 Thread Steven Friedrich
I'm running freebsd 7.2p3, kde4.3.0, X7.4_2, and using the radeon X driver.

I get an error dialog when I enable desktop effects.

Can anyone enable desktop effects?  I'm wondering if it requires support in 
the X driver and perhaps the ati drivers don't support it yet.

You need to enable the appropriate settings within xorg.conf.

You need to enable the appropriate settings within xorg.conf.

I don't have either of those in my radeon xorg.conf, but composite 
effects in Xfce like window transparency work.

This is also true for me under 7.2(untested elsewhere).

I wasn't able to use kde4 compositing manager until they were there.
compiz* may have different requirements as well.

Looking at my Xorg.0.log, they're on by default...  Aha.  AIGLX is a 
build option for xorg-server.  Can't find where the composite extension 
came from, but I bet it's the same deal.

Now I looked further:

http://wiki.xfce.org/faq

According that the composite extension is now enabled by default as well so
I have some carry-over from old config file.
