Mates,
The only way I can explain this bizarre situation is just to show you
what it takes to get compiz started on my Toshiba P35 laptop and leave
it there.
After logging in to kwin, first I try and start compiz with the same
command shown with "ps ax"
00:01 Rankin-P35a~> compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints
ccp --indirect-rendering --no-libgl-fallback
compiz (core) - Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0
Next, of course, I have remove the /usr/lib/libIndirectGL.so.1 ->
libIndirectGL.so.1.2* link. (I've done it so often, I just created a
script to do it)
00:01 Rankin-P35a~> su
Password:
[root Rankin-P35a/home/david] # ./linux/scripts/llibi
[root Rankin-P35a/home/david] # exit
exit
Now with the link gone, let's try again:
00:03 Rankin-P35a~> compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints
ccp --indirect-rendering --no-libgl-fallback
compiz (core) - Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0
Get kwin back so my decorations return:
00:03 Rankin-P35a~> kwin --replace
trying '/home/david/.xcompmgrrc' as configfile
finished parsing the config file
Ok, now start with fusion-icon. Success, compiz is back. Now, lets see
how it is running:
00:03 Rankin-P35a~> ps ax | grep compiz
3804 ? S 0:01 compiz --replace --sm-disable
--ignore-desktop-hints ccp --indirect-rendering --no-libgl-fallback
3807 pts/1 R+ 0:00 grep compiz
Go figure?
