I'm having problems getting Compiz Fusion to work on OpenSolaris 2008.05, must
be driver issue. I have installed minskey's ATI DRI driver from
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/dri/files/ , it seemed to install OK, though
I had to init S to single user mode to install it. I also followed the
guidelines about modifying lines to xorg.conf, relevant sections shown below:
In module section I added Load "dri" and Load "GLcore":
Section "Module"
# This loads the DBE extension module.
Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
# This loads the miscellaneous extensions module, and disables
# initialisation of the XFree86-DGA extension within that module.
SubSection "extmod"
Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension
EndSubSection
# This loads the font modules
# Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
# This loads the SolarisIA module
Load "IA"
# This loads the GLX module
Load "glx"
# This loads the Solaris Trusted Extensions module if it is installed
Load "xtsol"
# This loads the DRI module
Load "dri"
Load "GLcore"
EndSection
..........
In device section I added Option "Bus Type" "PCI" as recommeded:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Standard VGA"
VendorName "Unknown"
BoardName "Unknown"
# The chipset line is optional in most cases. It can be used to override
# the driver's chipset detection, and should not normally be specified.
# Chipset "generic"
# The Driver line must be present. When using run-time loadable driver
# modules, this line instructs the server to load the specified driver
# module. Even when not using loadable driver modules, this line
# indicates which driver should interpret the information in this section.
Driver "vga"
# The BusID line is used to specify which of possibly multiple devices
# this section is intended for. When this line isn't present, a device
# section can only match up with the primary video device. For PCI
# devices a line like the following could be used. This line should not
# normally be included unless there is more than one video device
# intalled.
# BusID "PCI:0:10:0"
# VideoRam 256
# Clocks 25.2 28.3
Option "BusType" "PCI"
EndSection
I have a Toshiba Satellite L30 laptop and I've almost got everything working.
Sound is working but not great, system sounds and Rythmbox is quiet even on
full volume, Mplayer is loud enough though . I don't think ACPI has driver but
it's not a problem. Please help me get Compiz 3D working!
