Fusion-icon and xfce

how can I get fusion-icon to start with xfce?
First I tried to edit the xfce config file and make it load fusion-icon instead of xfwn4 but that just make xfce load with a screwed up version of xfwm4.
When I add it to autostarted applications it says error writing autostart/compiz.de but when I use the terminal and do su then afce4-autostart-editor I can edit it? But it still wont work.

chrisn2323 wrote:how would I fix permissions issue?
The easiest way to check that this is the problem in Xfce would be through Thunar: open ~/.config and right-click the autostart folder to open the "Properties" window, and see what it says in the "Permissions" tab. The owner should be your usual user, and permissions should be "Read & Write".
If the owner is something different, you won't be able to change the permissions. I don't think Thunar can change the owner, so open a terminal and, as root,
chown [your user]:users /home/[your home directory]/.config/autostart
You should then be able to change the permissions with Thunar if you need to (it's possible they're set to "Read & Write" already, but for the wrong user).

Fusion-Icon

I reinstalled everything recently. When I try to run Fusion-Icon as anything other than root I get this:
[grod@ficulnean ~]$ fusion-icon

Why does it need to write to /root ? How can I change it to write to /home/grod ? I installed as root because Pacman won't let me install as anything else. I tried yaourt -R fusion-icon and then yaourt -S fusion-icon as grod, but that didn't make a difference.
I'm about ready to give up and just run as root all the time.

My point to you is that your error message has everything to do with your python-path and your fusion-icon. Notice the python2.5 and python2.6 errors in the error message. The upgrade that borked everything was the upgrade of python2.5 to python2.6.....
I had a lot of breakages from that upgrade..... most all of it was because the python-path was wrong.
You need to have the correct python paths in your new "python 2.6".
I fixed my python-path problems with the fusion-icon by un-installing the "compiz-fusion-gtk" group, then re-installing the whole "compiz-fusion-gtk" group.
(I use the gtk packages from this page: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Com … _Community ..... you might be using the kde group or just the regular compiz-fusion group)
If you open up the "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages" directory, you will see the FusionIcon folder is now in it.
I also had to make sure the "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0" directory was also added. Do this by re-installing pygtk and all of it's dependencies that I listed in my post above.
See, all of this is relating to FusionIcon and python being screwed up:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/fusion-icon", line 57, in <module>
from FusionIcon.interface import choose_interface
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/FusionIcon/interface.py", line 23, <module>

makedirs(head, mode)
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/os.py", line 157, in makedirs
mkdir (name, mode)
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/root/.config'
I'm no expert, but this is what I just went through and it was fixed by reinstalling the missing paths in python2.6.... since they were still pointed at python2.5 and hadn't been upgrade to python2.6.

[SOLVED] Compiz fusion-icon won't run

Hello,
I'm new to Arch Linux and I've just installed it on my laptop. I want to run Compiz on XFCE: I tried the methods on the Arch Wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … icon.22.29) on replacing XFWM with Compiz. The second method doesn't work, only the first one works, but I don't want to use that one.
I've tried the third method, but when I followed the instructions and I rebooted my computer, I've got no window manager at all: I have to manually load Compiz.
The only thing that works right now is following the third method and also do the first one at together.
But I just want to do either the second or the third method. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thank you in advance.
(Sorry for bad English).

Hi, I didn't mean running Compiz as root: I just edited this file: "/etc/xdg/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-session.xml" to make Compiz start for all users. I followed the method without the fusion icon this time (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … icon.22.29) and everything works now.
Thank you very much for the help.
(P.S.: I don't know how to mark this thread as SOLVED).

What should I do with this fusion-icon error??

[mcool@ArchLinux ~]$ fusion-icon
* Detected Session: xfce
* Searching for installed applications...
* Intel detected, exporting: INTEL_BATCH=1
* Using the GTK Interface
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Last edited by mcool4151 (2013-05-13 09:06:16)

There seems to be an issue with Intel and Compiz. To launch Compiz you have to always enter the following command into a terminal (as stated in the arch wiki).
LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true compiz --replace --sm-disable ccp &
This works for me, however I have no idea how to make it so Compiz auto starts on login. Simply pasting this command into "sessions and startup" doesn't work.
If anyone knows how to set Compiz to auto start with the above command on Xfce4 I would be grateful.

Fusion-icon loading problem

Hi everyone.
Recently I installed compiz fusion and I get this error when I load fusion-icon on the terminal.
* Setting window manager to Compiz
... executing: compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp
compiz (core) - Fatal: No GLXFBConfig for default depth, this isn't going to work.
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0
I really don't know how to solve it. I've tried adding the extra needed options in xorg.conf to make it work but it still does not.
Here it is if it would be of any help to solve this problem.

Introducing unnecessary symlinks is a sure fire way of messing something up in the future. I hope you were doing that only to test it out and then removed the symlink.

Fusion-Icon doesn't show fluxbox?

I have been using LXDE for a while now, and have decided to mess around with different window managers. So I installed compiz and fluxbox to mess with them. When I run fusion-icon I can see both OpenBox and Compiz, but not fluxbox as an option under "Select Window Manager". Anyone know how to get Fluxbox to show up?

Hiya!
Failing that, you can try plugging the phone into the charger, with it ON and still plugged in... remove the battery. leave it out for a minute and then reinsert it.

Fusion-icon error: glxinfo not installed. [SOLVED]

* Detected Session: gnome
* execution of "which glxinfo" failed

And I get that error. Now when I run glxinfo from the it spits out a whole bunch of stuff. So it is obviously installed correct? So why is it giving me this problem?

Yep, you need:

compizconfig-python++
compiz-core++
compiz-plugins-extra++
compiz-plugins-main++
compiz-plugins-unsupported++
emerald++
emerald-themes++
libcompizconfig++
Compile everything, run emerald-theme-manager-git and select your theme-du-your. Then fire up ccsm-git, so new compiz++ has it's own config-files.

Fusion-icon, improper start Solved

Hello all,
I've had this problem for a while, but it's not that big, just a little annoying.
Whenever I start fusion-icon (either as a startup entry, or after start-up) it loads incorrectly as my metacity window borders disappear and there are no compiz-effects.
I have to hit "Reload Window Manager" on the fusion-icon properties everytime I start it up.
Any idea's as to why this is (it used to start up fine a couple weeks ago), perhaps some setting I messed up?
Last edited by proxima_centauri (2009-01-30 20:06:11)

Hmmm, I coulda swore that wasn't it, because I only learned about metacity compositing (and enabled it) after fusion-icon started acting up
However, it seems to work at least switching from metacity to compiz from the icon with metacity compositing off.
I'm gonna reboot and start fusion-icon at start up just to make sure.
Cheers

Today I got an update from Arch including a new kernel and an update of my Nvidia drivers. I use GNOME with Compiz Fusion, that is started by Fusion-Icon. Now Fusion-Icon gives the following errors:
[jozef@frodo ~]$ fusion-icon
* Detected Session: gnome
* Error: glxinfo not installed!
I searched in the repos, but I coulnd't find a package called "glxinfo".
Could someone help?
Kind regards,
Jozef00

Kind regards,

Huge icons in xfce panel system tray

Hi,
i have huge icons in xfce panel system tray for pidgin and transmission... Any idea how to fix it?

Are you using xfce4-power-manager in xfce4? I can see that it appears that you are using the xfce4 panel, but it is not clear that you are using the rest of it. If you are, isn't it started by the .desktop file? In those files you can specify the icon used, so you might be able to simply change it to something more common to most icon sets.
Personally, I don't use icons or .desktop files, so I'm not sure that this is actually good advice. But it is the first thing that came to mind.

No icons within Xfce

I installed xfce4 using the wiki instructions but the problem is that I have no icons:

I have installed the gnome and tango-icon-theme but nothing happened.
I also downloaded a icon theme from xfce-look.org and extracted it to a folder named .themes in my home folder. I also copied it to /usr/share/icons and put gtk-icon-theme-name="..." in .gtkrc/2.0 at the home folder and set it as executable.
The file manager and other apps crash because of this so it's nearly useless the state of my system right now.
Can someone please help me?

The same happens even with that Simple icon theme.

And that's the crash - I cannot open the file manager for instance
I formatted the pc to install the 64bit version and the same problem is happening again. Last time the problem got solved by installing lxde on top of xfce. However I really want to avoid that ths time for obvious reasons. Help
That error is not related. Is dbus/hal running?

Fusion-icons error(solved)

After I install compiz-fusion and compiz-fusion-extra, I run the command fusion-icons
But I get wrong answer, the information is below:
compiz (dbus) - Error: dbus_bus_get error: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't activate plugin 'dbus'
Do I really miss something like "dbus"?
Someone helps me
Thanks()

It seems not the dbus's problem, it's the panel's problem.
After the fusion-icon starts, the panel doesn't show the funsion-icon's icon on the panel, so I just make a wrong impression that the fusion-icon does not start.
Now I use xfce4, it seems OK.
Thanks All of U

Fusion-icon and xfce
