And the differences in appearance and activation of various effects in Compiz Fusion were, as I suspected, a result of the different versions of Compiz Fusion its self that are in either Shames Lenny or Sid repositories. So getting these errors probably means that xgl is going just fine (w00t). error is apparently normal when xgl is running, as is direct rendering being disabled. Does anyone know if all versions of compiz fusion have this effect?Ģnd EDIT: Just for anyone else who may be trying to get Compiz Fusion working with an ATI card, fglrx and xgl, after further research I have discovered that the Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". ) is older and simply does not have the 3D cube effect that is activated by the middle mouse button. Has anyone gotten the compiz-fusion 3D effects working with lenny and an ATI card where you need this XGL business? Or am I just "pissing in the wind" here? Can anyone give more information on XGL?Ĭould the issue be related to the difference in gnome version between lenny and sid?ĮDIT: Probably better to post on the compiz fusion forum about this stuff I guess, but I just had a thought that perhaps the version of compiz fusion that is in shames lenny repo (. The fglrx driver packages in lenny and sid currently both appear to be at version 8.36.6, the libglitz-glx1 and libglitz1 packages also appear to be at the same version right now in lenny and sid, so I guess it must be something else that's different. So I started wondering what was different between lenny and sid. I have successfully got the compiz-fusion 3D effects working on this very laptop but on a sid installation and I have since reinstalled to give lenny a try as sid was just a little too unstable for what I'm wanting to use this particular laptop for. But then of course compiz fusion just doesn't work at all. If I start GDM without XGL, fglrxinfo does not show the Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". OpenGL renderer string: ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. Code: Select all Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
