your xserver probably doesnt support composite - not surprising if you use rootless mode as it cant sensibly allow compositors in x. xdpyinfo will list extensions. :) just because ecore built with xcomposite support in the lib doesnt mean the SERVER supports it too... - you may find that it works when rootless mode is off. :) as per my other email.. rootless stuff with e17 is going to cause issues... and after e17 compositing is becoming "not an option" anymore - it's compositing or "go away". that's why there has been so much effort to ensure a good software compositing path exists. so it still is viable even minus gl drivers. -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) ras...@rasterman.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.
