[SOLVED] Compiz-Fusion and mouse pointers

Hello,
I am having a bit of trouble using Gnome with Compiz-Fusion and trying to use the Vienna 3 Rapture mouse theme, or any non-default theme for that matter. Said theme worked fine for me in Fluxbox, but since I started using Gnome/Compiz it isn't working right.
I have my TV as a dual monitor, and the Vienna pointer works fine on it. On my main monitor though I get the standard black cursor. I can change it to red or white glass, but I can't get Vienna or any other cursor to appear on the list of pointers to change too. My mouse does switch to Vienna in Google Earth, but that's the only app I've seen so far that it works in.
Sometimes when I start X the Vienna cursor will appear for a moment before being overridden and sometimes it goes straight from the 'X' pointer to the default Gnome pointer. Perhaps on those occasions it just happens to fast for me to see.
I found a tip on a forum (that I can't find now to link to unfortunately....) that mentioned adding 'xsetrroot -cursor_name something something' (sorry I can't remember the exact command) to ~/.xinitrc before gnome-session. That didn't help at all. One thing I wasn't sure of though is whether to actually type '-cursor_name' or whether I should type the name of my cursor. I know that sounds stupid but the tip on the forum said to type it EXACTLY as shown. Generally they make a note of saying 'use your real path instead' or something of the like. 
I have my mouse themes, several of them, not just this one, and all of which worked in Fluxbox, setting in ~/.icons but they don't show up in the list of cursors available. My Vienna cursor is still set apparently since it works on the TV, which is of course running Gnome/Compiz also.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong here? Thanks for any advice.

While I haven't figured this out yet, oddly enough after a restart (which I have done before) the cursor is 'kind of' working. It shows on the desktop and on the window borders, but not IN apps like Firefox or Pidgin.
It does however still work in Oxine. So I'm at a loss as to what's wrong and why it suddenly started partially working. Any ideas any one?
***I also noticed that the cursor is working in the 'Appearance' window, as well as some other config windows like the one for avant window navigator. It works in 'calculator' on the buttons, but if I were to hover over the display then it reverts to the default cursor.

  • [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".

    The problem is solved. Instead of

    I use

  • Compiz-fusion and KDE integration lacking

    I installed the latest compiz-fusion from the repositories.  It actually works quite well now which is great!
    However, I still have a few issues, and I think this is from the difference between KDE's virtual desktops and compiz's viewports.  In order to get 4 viewports under compiz I have to set the number of virtual desktops in KDE to 1.  However, this breaks two things, I think because KDE thinks there is only one virtual desktop:
    1. The taskbar can no longer show only tasks from the current desktop (or viewports).  It now shows all apps from all desktops, and in fact there is no option to show only current desktop tasks in the control center.
    2.  It also breaks Konqueror's option to open new instances in a tab of a current open konq window.  In normal KDE, if it's on the same desktop if will open a new instance in a new tab, but if you are on a different desktop it will open a new window of konq completely.  With compiz, opening a konq instance will jet you back to the desktop which already has an open konq, and then add a new tab to it.  Which makes it difficult to open several distinct konq windows on separate desktops.
    3.  Different desktop backgrounds on each viewport?
    Anyone have any solutions to these issues or are they still unfinished features within compiz?

    It was only then that another group of individuals realised that GNOME needed a cosmetic facelift, without blasphemous tinkering deep within GTK+. This was only possible via disguising the very act of "facelifting" with "another application". This way, GNOME would continue riding the waves of GTK+'s troo freedamn. As to why nobody proposed the idea of "killingall -9 gnome", nobody knows.
    The result was a welcome addition to the arsenal of GNU and Linux beauty, because it did something very beneficial to mankind - it made GNOME look "good", something which was never thought to be achievable even by the GTK+ priests. Inherent beauties like KDE soon began wearing the veil of this new product to enhance the auro (GNOME for hidden popularity) of their masters. It was like an accessory, like a wig to a french model. Thus, today we have Compiz maintaining pragmatic relations with KDE, because the combined magnificence is a secret (and hidden) love affair. However, to sustain development, total emphasis will continue to be placed upon sustaining the GNOME facelift. Due to this very reason, injuries in KDE are often left untreated. It's like a rich daughter wanting to marry the handsome gardener (who, by the way, has trashed many real Gnomes since dogs just eat them and leave a big mess in the ponds), where the consequences are always dark.

    Hello!
         i'm a newbie in linux, i would like to have 4 different wallpapers on each side of the cube, i tried wallpapoz, but im not satisfied. Finally i figured out that there is a plugin in compiz fusion, named wallaper plugin what can do this trick for me, but because Nautilus does not natively support multiple wallpapers, a patch is required for this plugin to work correctly when using Nautilus. And here is the problem. I found these patches:
    http://www.russ.co.il/patch/02_compiz_background.patch
    http://www.russ.co.il/patch/30_rgba_colormap.patch
    But these patches are made for nautilus & eel ver. 2.20.0, and i have ver 2.24.2-1 so i removed my eel and nautilus and made these operations:
    tar -xvzf nautilus-2.20.0.tar.gz

  • [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.

  • [solved] DWM: Focus and mouse pointer?

    Hello, I just went from openbox to dwm.
    I really enjoy this so far, but there are two things that I don't like.
    Lets say I have two views (1 & 2) with this kind of window layout:
    | | B |
    | A |_______|
    | | |
    | | C |
    |_______|_______|
    Steps:
    1. I'm in view 1 and my mouse is over A and it's focused
    2. I switch to view 2 (MODKEY+2) and move mouse pointer over B
    3. I switch back to view 1 (MODKEY+1) - The focus is still on A, even though my mouse pointer is over B
    Is this normal? I would like to set it so that focus always follows my mouse pointer,
    I would also like it so that when I move focus with MODKEY+j/k it would move my mouse pointer over that window.
    Is there an option or a patch to do this?
    I'm using dwm-6.0.

    Thanks! This "wrap" patch actually showed me that my first problem wasn't really a problem for me.
    Now the pointer moves always over the last focused window when I switch back to a view.
    And yes it applied fine to dwm 6.0.
    edit. But it kind of ruins switching views from statusbar with mouse, since the pointer always hops to the center of focused window. But I think I can live with it.

  • Using X11 and Fink/Fink Commander to run Compiz Fusion?

    Hi! One of my friends who loves Ubuntu Linux showed me some weird app called Compiz Fusion and im like ooo... i wanna play wiht that. And I remembered that OS X had a way of installing Linux apps.. so I downloaded the .tar of compiz fusion and I also downloaded and installed Fink and Fink Commander for OS X 10.5.2 but um.. yeah Im not very good with running terminal and junk.. I was following directions so I checked my list of app packages Fink could install in Terminal but either I didnt see compiz or it came up as a name I didnt understand.. does anyone here have experience running X11 and Fink? Or if you have a link where I can teach myself X11 and Fink that would work too! Thanks in advance!

    Whoa there etersoft, I don't want to get in a flame war.
    Not to worry. I would lose interest long before that happened
    I didn't knock OSX except to point out an actual bug with X11.
    But it is not a bug with OSX if some 3rd party tool is not compatible. It is a Mac, not a Linux workstation. If you want to run Linux on it, you can install Linux on it. The Mac has its own window manager designed to allow most X11 apps run and not look too bad alongside the Mac apps. It really is a design feature.
    Personally, I like both.
    I like UNIX - a lot. But I'm not too fond of Linux. It is for people who do want to build their own machines out of components. I'm a software person, not a hardware person. That doesn't interest me in the least. As a software person, I have little interest in developing software for Linux because every single Linux box is unique. That is a hassle I don't want to deal with. That is why I like MacOS X so much - all the power of Solaris with the beauty and easy-of-use of a Mac.
    In the past there were tons of issues doing linux installs, and linux was fairly labeled as finicky and difficult. By the same token, when I was trying to upgrade to Leopard recently, I got a warning that my only option was "erase and install".
    You lucked out. Erase and install is the best way to install a major OS upgrade.
    No other options, no explanation why, no suggestions for fixing it -- it was as mysterious as a Linux install from 1999, albeit with a much prettier formatting error message.
    In 1999, I didn't even get that much from Linux. The X server just crashed as soon as the install was done and took the boot partition with it - reinstall from scratch. I have VectorLinux running in Parallels, but I never use it.

  • [SOLVED] Compiz Performance with ATI x700

    So this is my story:
    I have an Acer Aspire Laptop with a ATI x700 Mobility graphics card. A couple of days ago I installed Arch for the first time. I installed the "xf86-video-ati" package and compiz-fusion and it worked great. Then I managed to break my system to unusability and decided to reinstall. In the meantime there was an update for xf86-video-ati (from 6.8.0-4 to 6.9.0-5) and now I have some quite annoying performance issues with compiz: maximizing/unmaximizing as well as unminimizing a window (so I assume everytime it has to load a new window into the memory) takes like 2 seconds (while working perfectly smoothly before).
    I tryed the options suggested at http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ATI … nce_tuning but without success. Since I use exactly the same xorg configuration as before I can only speculate that it has to do something with the package update (maybe some option that was enabled by default before now has to be manually set?). I also tried the catalyst drivers but performance was pretty much the same.
    Anyways, here are the relevant parts (so I think) of my xorg.conf file
    Section "Module"
    Load "glx"
    Load "dri"
    Load "drm"
    EndSection
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "** ATI (generic) [ati]"
    Driver "ati"
    Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true"
    Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,AUTO"
    EndSection
    Section "DRI"
    Group "video"
    Mode 0666
    EndSection
    Any ideas what I could do to bring back compiz at the speed that my graphics card already proved to be capable of are very welcome

    I think I just experienced the same problem with my x800gto.  It was very slow to toggle between vertical/horizontal/full maximizations.  I tried changing the default acceleration method from XAA to EXA.  This seems to have solved the problem, and now my wobbly windows change size with butter smoothness.  The changes I made were to add
    Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
    under the device setting.  There reason you need no such option for XAA is because, to my undestanding, XAA is the default.  Making this change means you should also comment out
    Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true" #needed for aiglx
    since it is now irrelevant.
    Since you also use an ATI card, I will suggest configuration options that work well for me:
    Option "AGPMode" "4"
    Option "GARTSize" "64"
    Option "EnablePageFlip" "True"
    Option "ColorTiling" "True"
    Good luck.  Hope this does the trick for you.

  • 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.

    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..

  • 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
    Last edited by Ranguvar (2008-10-20 23:40:59)

    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.

    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.

    There is a package in the community repository that provides this functionality.  I think it's called compiz-decorator-gtk.
    And welcome to arch!
