Compiz-fusion can't start

I installed compiz-fusion. But it gives me following message when start fusion-icon:

Thanks for your concern.
My display card is radeon 9600 and pentium m cpu.
I had changed back to the newest version gnome,reinstalled compiz-fusion after removing with -Rs option. Both catalyst 8.11-02 and newest open source ati driver had been tried. Now it is the "No GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap" problem:

[SOLVED] Gnome + xf86-video-ati = Compiz-fusion can't start wo f-i

I know this is not a new issue but... let's try again.
The title is pretty much the situation. I reinstalled the whole system recently and installed Catalyst which worked good except for a delay on maximizing/resizing windows. Yesterday I saw the new about Catalyst going to AUR and all that stuff so I decided to switch to open source drivers. They work pretty good but the wiki-way to start compiz without fusion-icon which used to work with catalyst does not work anymore.

In your compiz.desktop instead of:
Exec=compiz ccp
It should be:
Exec=compiz --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp --indirect-rendering
Edit:
If you still have problems after that you need to export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1, which is what fusion-icon is doing.

[SOLVED]Compiz Fusion doesn't start!

Hello,
After an upgrade Compiz Fusion doesn't start. Normally I start Compiz Fusion with the command:
fusion-icon
But now it gives on a terminal the following output:
fusion-icon
* Detected Session: gnome
* execution of "which glxinfo" failed
* Error: glxinfo not installed!
I searched with Yaourt on "glxinfo", but there is no package called "glxinfo".
Could someone help?

Hello,
The problem is solved. Instead of
fusion-icon
I use
compiz-manager
Thanks to xaiviax for his reply.
Jozef

I can't turn off Compiz-Fusion.

I followed the wiki instructions for autostarting Compiz-Fusion by having KDE load it instead of kwin from the start (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Com … id_KWIN.29). Now I undid it, but apparently it's a one-way function. Compiz-Fusion still loads every time I start KDE, only now it loads after kwin.
Obviously I can run kwin --replace from the konsole, but I'd like to actually fix it.
Why is Compiz-Fusion still auto-starting?

hencethus wrote:I'm running kdm as a daemon, so I'm pretty sure ~/.xinitrc isn't checked when I load KDE.
yeah thats the way to go. so.. try this:
man chmod
change chmod +x /usr/bin/compiz-fusion to what it was..
and clear out your ~/.bashrc
good luck

Correct way of starting compiz fusion on GNOME

This is actually a really minor issue, but something that has been irritating me for a while.
I've experimented with two ways of starting compiz fusion, first adding fusion-icon to the session startup list. However, this results in metacity being loaded and then compiz fusion being loaded afterwards, which created this flicker which I don't really like.
The second way is adding another xsession that sets WINDOW_MANAGER to something else and then starting the gnome session. On Gnome 2.22 this works somewhat. If I set WINDOW_MANAGER to "compiz ccp" everything works fine, except that it doesn't load emerald and doesn't start with loose-bindings (expected). Then I tried setting it to "compiz ccp --loose-bindings"; this caused it to hang at the gnome splash screen for a good 2-3 minutes, also anyting else other than "compiz ccp" caused the same hang. Setting it to fusion-icon, or compiz-manager, also caused the same hang.
Now on Gnome 2.24, the WINDOW_MANAGER var doesn't seem to do anything anymore, and the only way I can start compiz before the gnome session is to run compiz ccp &, fusion-icon &, etc. before exec gnome-session. This however, causes my screen to go black and hang for about a few minutes before working normally.
Am I doing something wrong? I want compiz fusion to be used as my window manager instead of metacity, is there no easy way of doing that? or do I have to resort to loading metacity and then replacing it with compiz fusion?
Thanks.

Also tried a method similiar to this: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 04#p438904 but using fusion-icon instead of dropbox.
There still seems to be a noticable delay between fusion-icon is loaded and the desktop being usable.
I'm experiencing the same. I was going insane trying to load compiz INSTEAD of metacity as per http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Com … sion.22.29. Oh well, I guess it can't be done. WIERD.
The annoying thing about this is that if I start up programs and they start before compiz is loaded, wierd things happen (like buttons missing on the top etc). Also, I can't for the life of me get session-management to work with compiz-fusion and gnome 2.24..

[SOLVED] Can't start compiz with gnome

When I set up gnome initially, I used the following wiki guide:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … k_Users.29
I had some issues after upgrading to gnome 3.8 that have now since been solved. I wen't through quite a bit trying to fix it and now somehow compiz isn't starting with my gnome/compiz session. It starts just fine if I run
$ compiz ccp --replace
after logging into the session. I think I'm simply not understanding how this session that I've installed works (or .session files in general).
here is my /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-compiz.session:
[GNOME Session]
Name=GNOME Compiz
RequiredComponents=compiz;cairo-dock;gnome-settings-daemon;
RequiredProviders=notifications;
DefaultProvider-windowmanager=compiz
DefaultProvider-notifications=notification-daemon
I tried removing cairo-dock from the above file just to make sure that this is the file actually being used and it did start up without the dock as I guessed. Obviously this file is being used. Why won't compiz start as well? I also tried adding gnome-panel to the file and gnome-panel did not start. Is this because it needs a .desktop file as well? I assume so.
Here is my /usr/share/xsessions/gnome-compiz.desktop:
[Desktop Entry]

Name=GNOME/Compiz
Comment=This session logs you into the GNOME desktop environment with Compiz and Cairo-Dock
Exec=/usr/bin/gnome-session --session=gnome-compiz

and here is my /usr/share/applications/compiz.desktop:

So I started to think that maybe compiz was actually starting up but the ccp argument wasn't taking. I ran
$ pgrep -l compiz
and got no output. So compiz really isn't starting at all. What gives?

I also tried launching it with dbus but got the same problem.
I see that I'm missing the texture_from_pixmap but I'm not sure how to fix that. Help?

OK so this all went pear shaped after updating Windows to 8.1? Have a look at Preferences > Performance and see if Graphics acceleration is still checked. Or it might even be greyed out. Apparently the 8.1 installer arbitarily installs a generic graphics card driver, so you might find that your drive is not so up to date as it used to be.
You know that you need to update it from the card maker's site?

Compiz-fusion, nvidia GeForce 8600M GT, no Compiz-fusion configurator.

Hi there,
I have few issues with the Compiz-fusion...
1. I have the Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT card, one thing is for sure - i can play The Witcher without any trouble. And Compiz-Fusion is running very slow... Maybe not very slow, but i think, that a card that can handle The Witcher - should have no trouble with sth like Compiz-Fusion... I've installed the newest Nvidia drivers, everything seems to be OK... But it isnt... C-F is running slow, making me mad ;]
2. I can't use the ccsm... AFAIK, ccsm should be the graphical configurator for Compiz-Fusion... But i have some trouble with locales... i'm using Polish locales, and the (standard?) en_EN UTF8 locales...

Thanks for the reply.
I did that, restarted Xserver with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
no black screen after fusion-icon command this time (I suppose because Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" is off)
but when i select Compiz as a Window Mnager from fusion-icon I have no borders in my windows and no effects and I canot switch throw windows. Why is that...?
after fusion-icon command I take this exit:

Downloaded latest update 7-27 and all I can say is it is the most pitiful piece of feces I have ever seen. Letters are blue with black background and you can't read **** because of the contrast . What was wrong with the white letters and black background, nothing except some idiot has to justify his miserable existence by making changes on a system that was just fine. Contacts are another issue now that it takes anywhere from 3 to 5 steps to get there. Unlocking the phone is another one , why should I have to unlock it just to have another screen to ask me where to go. I have been on the phone with Verizon as well as going to the store for help in deciphering this new pitiful update. The answers from the help at the stores is to email Google or Verizon about these issues .I purchased the original droid in dec. of 2009 and was happy with it. then upgraded to the razr jan 2012 and have been pleased with it till this latest update and now If I could get anything else I would, another thing is I would NOT recommend the droid to anyone for purchase.I have even tought about getting the iphone at this point because I am so dissatisfied . when I decided to post this I tried the user name of irked , it was taken as well as ******, so apparently I'm not the only disgusted user.

Compiz or compiz-fusion on intel

I tried to run compiz from [community] then compiz-fusion from [compiz-fusion] on Intel video card, but failed.
Beryl works correctly, but compiz wants texture from pixmap.
I have AIGLX and Composize correctly configured.
Can you run compiz on intel?

OK, it works, thanks, but how to automate it?
This is my current .xinitrc:
export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1
gtk-window-decorator &
compiz ccp &
#unset LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT
exec xfce4-session
as you can see "unset" is commented out, without it it doesn't work.
I also can't use LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT in the same line, because it doesn't work this way in .xinitrc.
When I use such solution - each other application starts in indirect mode (i.e. without acceleration).
Solutions:
1) start compiz manually - unacceptable
2) use my .xinitrc - problem with new OpenGL applications (I need to unset LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT somewhere else)
3) ???

Window Handles Lost When Using Compiz-Fusion

Well, I decided to try using compiz-fusion with LXDE, and as soon as I started up fusion-icon, my window title bars are gone. Only way I can get them is by setting my window manager to OpenBox, but that means not being able to use compiz-fusion's eye candy. Anybody know what to do to fix this problem?

Got it figured out. Needed to enable "move windows" and "resize windows" as well. EVERYTHING is disabled by default

Trouble With latest Compiz-Fusion. Fusion-icon doesnt show

Ok, I've updated to the latest build in the http://arch.nesl247.org/compiz-fusion/i686 repo...
I can't seem to get the icon to launch.
It starts via CLI, but I can never see it.
Addtionally, I cannot launch the Compiz-fusion manager via menu or icon. It just times out. If I start it via CLI though, it comes right up.
What other information can I provide? Im at a loss on how to fix this. I am using KDEmod.

Help setting up Compiz Fusion standalone with gdm, inittab, and tint

Hello!
I'd like to set up my fresh Arch install with Compiz Fusion standalone, using twim, and gdm as the login manager. This all with the inittab method of booting with gdm. Openbox is nice, but I have a fast PC - while I like minimalism, effects are nice.
I've looked at the wiki instructions, and a few forum threads, but haven't so far got it working.
Could someone please explain the different config files I will be working with, and how they mesh together? As in, what process does the system follow through them? Does ~/.xinitrc factor in, or is it only called through startx? That sort of thing.
And, does anyone know if Compiz Fusion will 'mesh' with tint, and provide the same mouse-over image previews of windows available in GNOME?
Thanks

If you'll be using gdm create a file called fusion.desktop ("fusion" can be anything you want to name your session and will appear in gdm session listing). Place this file in /etc/X11/sessions.
Mine for reference:
/etc/X11/sessions/fusion.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Fusion
Comment=Compiz Fusion Standalone
Exec=/usr/local/bin/start-fusion.sh
TryExec=/usr/local/bin/start-fusion.sh
Type=Application
Then you need to create a script and place it in /usr/local/bin. As you can see from my fusion.desktop file I've named the script start-fusion.sh. Here's mine for reference:
/usr/local/bin/start-fusion.sh
#!/bin/sh
# Avoid relying on autolaunch to improvise D-Bus sessions for each process
if test -z "$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" ; then
eval `dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`
fi
#compiz ccp &
#emerald &
sleep 6 && cairo-dock &
sleep 12 && mplayer /usr/share/archlinux/arch-anim.mov &
exec fusion-icon
Make the script executable (do all above as root or use sudo) and you should be able to use gdm to login.
Does ~/.xinitrc factor in, or is it only called through startx?
Well, that would be the case if starting from runlevel 3. You would then want to add a line like this to it:
exec start-fusion.sh
btw: fusion-icon is used rather than the #'ed out method in start-fusion.sh as it provides a way to exit out of the session.
You can also use compiz-deskmenu from aur to provide you with a menu in your fusion session.
As far as tint is concerned, I haven't used it. I use cairo-dock which has a systray plugin. Advantage being I can use it as a widget and hide it away.

If I try the command wiki suggest to use for a "non-direct " video card:
LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 compiz --replace ccp &
Everything seems frozing but cursor gives me its display indicates that it's only the windows display problem ,it is not really froze, but... why?
My video card is Intel 900 (910GML, 915GM). I have installed the xf86-video-intel from testing repos., along with following packages as WIKI indicateing:

Firefox has no title-bar/border in emerald & compiz fusion [SOLVED]

I am running compiz-fusion in gnome with emerald as the window decorator and everything is working fine apart from firefox. When it starts up it has no title-bar or window border and appears to be in full screen mode (since nothing else is visible) but actually isn't. I have absolutely no experience working with window managers and am clueless as to what the problem could be.
Can anyone help me?
Many thanks

I've also found myself facing the same behaviour of the firefox window; I got bored of the F11 x2 workaround, and tried to start firefox from the terminal, to see if there were any strange error message.
Magically, it started with the correct size, not covering anything it should not.
And now it always open correctly from the usual launcher.
Maybe it can be another way to try... for me it worked.

Compiz-fusion can't start
