I found Fedora 13 says in in the effects option, that it needs 3D support, my computer has a Nvidia graphics card, si I expect it needs a driver. How does this go. Must I search manually?

I spent *#@$ hours trying to figure out how to change my default window manager to "compiz-manger".I tried using gconf-editor and .gnomercAnybody has an idea how to do this?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have Fedora 10 installed. I've just made an update of my system. Things that were updated were a new kernel version with devel and also something with NVIDIA (which is my video card).
After restart of my system, compiz fusion no longer works.
I have a NVIDIA-Linux-x86-177.82-pkg1.run -file to manually install the NVIDIA-driver so the advanced features of Compiz can be utilized.
After install, the bootup screen tells me that loading the NVIDIA driver has failed. I also receive a WARNING-message.
I'm trying to find out when QME2572 (Qlogic) card became support by the kernel. We have a RHEL 5.1 system that is moving to new hardware, however the kernel at this release doesn't support the new hardware, due to the Qlogic card change. I tired the Redhat KB and Bugzilla. Is there a Kernel change list etc I can search. Never really played around with the kernel too much so I'm just after some pointers for looking up this information. Offically its not supported until Redhat 5.3, I'm trying trying to research kernel info so I can tell the customer they have to upgrade.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just got F12 and installed it on a new hard drive on my Dell Inspiron 1501. I have an AMD 64 x2 and an ATI Express 200M video card. I installed CompizConfig setting manager, which did nothing. I then installed Compiz Fusion Icon. This makes compiz work but once I start it all of my windows are missing the title bar. I'm noob and not a programmer but pretty good and figuring things out.In Emerald Theme Manager I can view available themes select them, edit them, etc. There seems to be no way to apply them. Am I missing something or is it just not working?

I just installed Fedora 12 on my computer, and i have a problem. Compiz isn't running properly. It's not responding to changes that i make in the CompizConfig Settings Manager
The cube runs and the wobbly windows work fine.Am i doing something wrong? I installed Compiz and Emerald. And enabled it from the Desktop Effects menu, but when i change some settings it doesn't respond. My graphics card is Intel, don't know what model
I just got F12 working very nicely - loving it so far. I see that the desktop effects offer a lot of what I want, but what extras does the compiz fusion install described here offer? [URL]
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was trying to install and run Compiz fusion with fedora 12. I downloaded all the packages etc using both the gui and terminal according to some guides. When I click the desktop effects button, it says 3d is not enabled, however the guide I followed said to enter glxgears (or something to that effect) and if it came up with 3d gears then 3d was enabled...I am very confused. There was an application I ran after downloading/installing some packages that caused the screen to go white and I had to reboot. I read in another forum this may have something to do with my drivers...gotta check my graphics card specs, will post when I find them.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow can I change compiz, so that the expose effect that happens when I hover my mouse on the up right corner will go somewhere else (up left corner).
I know it sounds easy but I've googled it and found nothing
I made a fresh install of Fedora 13, installed the video card driver for my video card. How do I get compiz fusion to work and what do I need to install? when I enable desktop effects the system panels disappear. Also I'm looking to install that effects editor that has all the different effects menus.
Okay I think I got the menu loader and Compiz working.. for those who browse to this thread.. the answer is. yum install compiz-fusion fusion-icon the desktop cube was a little tricky to get working.
However if I enable desktop effects fromt he preferences menu the system panels still disappear.
The other night I ran an update, which after it was done said it required a reboot for libconsole to finish updating. I had some other things to do so I rebooted. When I came back and logged into GNOME with Compiz it took forever to load, when it did it loaded metacity instead of compiz. I tried starting it manually(with compiz, and compiz manager) but each time it starts all the window decorations come up but I can't interact with the desktop at all(I can move the mouse but thats it). The only way to make X responsive again is to go into another TTY and kill compiz. When I do that there is no debug information thats useful.
View 2 Replies View RelatedSince i upgraded to F14 I have been having an annoying problem with compiz: I have twinview and an nvidia 8800GTS. Windows like transmission and pidgin that i put on my second monitor and then hide, have their position reset to the center left side of the screen on the absolute border of the first monitor. this is probably a problem with how compiz is detecting the outputs.
EDIT: Any windows that have their position saved to the second screen will be reset to hug the center left side of the screen.
SOLVED: I manually set the outputs in compiz and the selected use largest output first in Place Windows plugin.
here's what I want:
Fedora 14
Radeon 5830
2 monitors(one 1920x1080, one 1920x1200) -- shared screen
Compiz
Gnome
It seems like you cannot run Compiz and Xinerama at the same time(correct?) So the solution is then to use XRandR right? I configured my xorg.conf using aticonfig --initial=dual-head. When I do that and reboot, everything works fine and Compiz is enabled! Hooray! But wait, there is a separate screen on each monitor and I can't drag windows between them. So I open amdcccle and change the monitors to share a screen(single desktop, multi monitor) and reboot... and my left monitor looks fine but the right monitor(the 1920x1200 one) looks corrupted. Strange text composited over, weird flickering, etc. I can't see the login prompt to type my password due to the corruption.
How to enable compiz fusion in fedora 15
View 8 Replies View RelatedI wanted to know how to uninstall compiz which I installed on my Fedora partition, and now that I logged out, I cannot log in, because every time the desktop loads, large errors come up that bring me back to the login screen. I try to load gtk-2 that allows compiz, but that takes me back to the login screen without an error message, which I consider is wierd. Is there anyway that I could uninstall compiz, ccsm, fusion, and similar plugins from my ubuntu partition, or atleast kick them off the start-up program list so I can uninstall them the next time I log in (successfully)

I use fedora 12 on toshiba m200 satellite laptop.
I recently upgraded Fedora 11 to Fedora 12. No problems. Tried to get fancy and add Compiz using a string I took from the fedora forum.
Now the system appears to be booting but then hangs with the cursor in the corner. I am able to get to a virtual terminal (Ctl-Alt-F3)and examined the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
I believe it is looking for an "nVidia.ko" file. I am not able determine what to do to get back to normal.
Attempted to rename the xorg.conf file but it didn't help. Not really sure that is what the problem is but I tried running startx and it mentions that file as a problem.
Any steps I should be trying to get back to the regular GUI desktop?
I'm looking to dual-boot Windows 7 and Debian 6 upon its release on my sister's laptop. I want to share a partition between the two of them so that /home points to this directory and the Windows equivalent also points to it (C:Users).
Anyway, I've heard good and bad things about the NTFSMount driver (I think it's NTFS-3G now) and the NTFSprogs project and so I am not so certain what I should believe. I do know that NTFS has relatively high overhead, though I do not recall the source of this assertion, so I am considering the use of EXFAT. An open source EXFAT project is hosted on Google Code at [url] and it utilizes the kernel module FUSE.
I'm quite certain that I've got everything covered on the Windows side -- that is, I know that both NTFS and EXFAT will be suitable filesystems for my required usage.
My issue is that I'm curious which will have superior performance and stability in Debian. I planned on building the package from source and mounting the device in my FSTAB but I have also found a PPA for Ubuntu on Launchpad at [url] that I could borrow the debian/rules from and make a .deb package from.
What do you guys think? Should I go at it with the EXFAT or NTFS partitioning? Is NTFS-3G actually fairly supported at this point? Or perhaps should I consider some alternate method?
I have also considered that the only files she will be sharing are those of music, videos, and pictures so it could be better to just link /home/xxxx/Pictures (Music and Videos, too) to the new partition instead of all of /home.
I would like to know if it is possibile to have support for wi-fi midi support in linux.

I've just added an extra 1GB of RAM memory to my laptop (HP 530). Now I have 2 GB. Everything runs great, except Compiz and 3D games. It looks like anything that's related to the graphics card now slows down. Rotating the cube lags badly, so does the Burn effect, and UrbanTerror is lagging too.
Before the upgrade, I had a Samsung 1GB SO-DIMM, 667 MHz. Then, I bought a Kingston 1GB SO-DIMM, 667 MHz too. When the laptop boots with either of the SO-DIMMs (only ONE GB at a time), everything runs smoothly, like before. But when I put both of them (regardless of the order in the sockets), my video card seems to slow down at nearly half of it's speed.
I haven't tried with Windows yet. Also, my graphics card has a dedicated memory of 256 MB, so there's no memory sharing between video and the RAM.
I just don't get it. Also, there are other people that seem to have slowdowns after upgrading the RAM, but usually the whole system is affected. For me, it's just the video. It actually boots faster with the 2 GB. Yet I found no clear solution to this.
Running Fedora 10 i686, on a 32-bit Intel Core Duo @2200 MHz, video card Intel 945GM Express, with 256 MB of dedicated memory. The swap partition is 2.8 GB in size.
When trying to set up desktop effects with Compiz I get this message: Accelerated 3D graphics is not available Desktop effects require hardware 3D support.
I have used Fedora 10 last year and the 3D effects worked fine. I have a Nvidia Geforce 6100 video. I also have another hdd on the PC with Mandriva 2010 which I use and the 3D compiz effects work fine. I'm running Omega 12. Isn't it Fedora 12 w/ codecs added? isn't video detection the same?
