Submitted: Jan 6 2007
Updated: Oct 25 2007

Description:

opensuse-xgl-settings will not be updated for openSUSE 11.0 since it's obsoleted by tools included in the distro

A simple gui for openSUSE 10.3 KDE-users, for:

Enabling desktop effects with Xgl / Compiz
Selecting Compiz plugins (including wobbly windows)
Installing and enabling Compiz Fusion with Xgl or Nvidia-glx.
Install 3D drivers

How to install
1) Download the RPM

2) Right click it in konqueror -> Open with Install Software

opensuse-xgl-settings depends on kommander-runtime

opensuse-xgl-settings is now also available on this openSUSE Build Service repository:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/XGL/openSUSE_10.3/

How to run it
Start it from your menu: System -> Configuration -> opensuse-xgl-settings

or run the command: opensuse-xgl-settings

Requirements
It's assumed that you have a graphics card that supports XGL with the proper driver installed.

Troubleshooting
All problems following use of opensuse-xgl-settings should be easily solved by simply disabling XGL, by running this command as root:

gnome-xgl-switch --disable-xgl
(or 'nvidia-xconfig --no-composite' when using nvidia-glx)

And run this command as normal user:

touch ~/.config/compiz/disable-compiz

That's better than those unnecessary "gnome" commandline utils.

Could you also post a source RPM (since it is GPL)?

Thanks for the compliment.

Wrt. source, kommander-scripts are not binary. The *.kmdr, is basically an xml-file, that's parsed by kmdr-executor.

Try opening /opt/kde3/share/xgl/xgl.kmdr with kommander-editor or a text editor.

However I'll look into providing a tarball.

Fiinally compiz works on my computer and I always thought that my ati graphic card is too old for it.

Is it possible to make a quick change for the window decoration themes and put it in the applet? As I am not used to work with compiz I don't know haow to change them anyway.I would be thankful for helping me changing the themes at all. And I think I'm not the only one.

Best regards Rene

This is a great help with KDE and XGL. I really appreciate it! An applet would be very nice, if possible, in the future.

Nah, 10.2 only, sorry.. it relies on an openSUSE 10.2-specific kde-base patch.

Hi,
I use your application to start xgl in my suse 10.2 and a I've tested compiz and beryl with it. I use KDE.

I think that there is not enough settings to change for compiz customization. There is only text file, that is ok, but it's better if you make more settings OR if your software let us use (gconf) Gnome Personal Settings or Gnome Configuration Editor into KDE.

I've found out that if I start xgl by opensuse-xgl-setting with compiz every compiz change with all Gnome settings tools haven't effect. BUT if I start xgl changing sysconfig/displaymanage (DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER="Xgl") I can use Gnome Configuration tools and Every change is visible. I have used Gnome Tools into KDE.

So, have you any solution at this situation?

Thanks a lot for your tools... is really friendly.

Goodbye

j.

hmm.. some good points.

My proposed solution would be to use Beryl instead, if default compiz-settings are not satisfactory.

Another solution would be to load the gconf compiz-plugin.. I might actually have left it out of the list in the text file, prolly something I should look into changing..

I'm afraid there's no way for me to offer proper configuration compiz+plugins.. other than gconf.

I'll think about it.. and maybe add functionality to install and run gconf.
