Re: [Bug 157790] Re: Seg fault on enabling desktop effects
Compiz doesn't work with nvidia driver? Where is this documented? I never had a problem with Beryl. If this is indeed the case, than there should be more specific messages, with a reason for the cause of failure, in ubuntu when a user tries to enable effects. The generic desktop effects could not be enabled lead me to believe that it was a bug as I assumed my card/driver was ok.

[Bug 157790] Re: Seg fault on enabling desktop effects
You're using the nvidia-glx-legacy driver which does not support running compiz (or beryl) without also using Xgl. Nvidia does not do any work on this driver anymore so bugs in it will not be fixed. -- Seg fault on enabling desktop effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157790 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 157790] Re: Seg fault on enabling desktop effects
Pedro, I'm having difficulty getting a backtrace beacuse I cannot install the required package. I followed your link and added the repos to the sources.list. I couldn't find a compiz-dbgsym for compiz but I did find compiz-core-dbgsym (not sure what other packages I should install). When I try to install compiz-core-dbgsym I get the following: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: compiz-core-dbgsym: Depends: compiz-core (= 1:0.6.0+git20071008-0ubuntu1) but 1:0.6.0+git20071008-0ubuntu1.1 is to be installed E: Broken packages Help would be appreciated.
