Hello everyone.This is my first email to the Trisquel-devel list. I'm not aware of the rules or etiquette for sending a message to the Trisquel devs (couldn't find it on https://listas.trisquel.info/mailman/listinfo/trisquel-devel), so please excuse me.
A month ago, I tried compiling Compiz-Reloaded (https://gitlab.com/compiz) on Trisquel 12. After many days of painstaking work, I was able to get it functional, but it was buggy. Also, I found it conflicts with the mesa-vulkan-drivers package: it would give me a empty MATE desktop when activating compiz. Removing the vulkan drivers resolves the issue. For those who may not have heard of Compiz-Reloaded, it's just a continuation of compiz 0.8. I strongly prefer compiz 0.8 over the official compiz packages. For now, it's too buggy to be considered stable; it would crash occasionally. Compiz-Reloaded works fine on Trisquel 11 aramo. A sidenote: this was tested in a virtual machine. I have yet to try on real hardware.
Is Compiz-Reloaded still feasible on Trisquel 12? And if I may ask, is there a possibility of offering Compiz-Reloaded on the ecne repositories in the future should it be considered feasible?
I would like to hear your thoughts on this issue. Thank you. Kalvin Dan
