Ubuntu :: Desktop Effect Won't Enable After Updates In Lucid?
May 6, 2010The reason why I'm pissed because so many people out there that use Linux aways say Microsoft sucks. But I have more problems with Linux, at least with Microsoft problems I can solve. Now since I got that out of my system, here's my issue.
I just installed LTS 10.04 everything was working fine, I have an ATI 5700 card installed so I installed the ATI drivers not the open stuff. After install the drivers worked perfectly no problems. After several days of using the computer, I said I'll run some updates. I did so and rebooted my computer and BOOOM now my ATI drivers do not work. I can't enable desktop effects, can't use cube etc. Not only that but if I go to the prior build it won't work there either. If this was windows 7, I would just reinstall and it would work.
Luckily for me I made a image of my Ubuntu 10.04 and did a restore and everything went back to normal because I restored the image prior to the update. Now just for kicks I ran the updates again to be sure the updates did indeed break the vid drivers. Yep, after the updates ran, reboot, BOOM broke again. What gives? Is it the kernel updates? If so then I guess I'll run updates without updating the kernel. By the way I did try to install the drivers that come with Ubuntu but that work either. I guess I have to do the restore again. I rather use the ATI drivers vs the open stuff.
Questions are the updates unstable? If it is then why release? Can anyone provide any solutions? Should I run updates but skip Kernal changes? If not then what is blowing up the drivers?
Fedora :: Compiz - How To Setup Minimize Effect In F14
Nov 13, 2010I've installed yesterday Fedora 14, 64 bit... Now I wanted to setup the nice graphic effect, but I can't find a way how to setup the minimize effect. I've installed additionally Emerald, ccsm and fusion-icon. I'm starting compiz using Fusion-icon. Just in the ccsm menus and icons I really can't find anymore how to setup those nice things like the magic lamp or there was also an effect which makes the window fold on minimizing (or closing).
And where did the burn effect go? It used to be there at some point in the past? And for closing effects and I didn't find nothing at all? Is there another configuration tool, besides ccsm, do I need to edit some config files in order to setup these things, should I install something more or nowadays. Compiz is losing its effects? Why all the topics regarding graphic effects are only on Ubuntu? Let's write about Fedora too !!

Mar 14, 2009Using Compiz's animation plugin, only the open and close effects work. When any entries are listed under the "Animation Selection" for Minimize, Focus, or Shade; the animations do not play; and I receive a libnotify error: "Animation settings mismatch in 'Animation Selection' list for __<Minimize or Focus or Shade>___ event."This happens even with the Animation Selection values reset and even the entire Animation configuration reset. I use the Gconf backend, but this also occurs with a file-based configuration. This has never worked for me.

Ubuntu :: Compiz Has No Effect?
May 6, 2011I recently did a clean install of 11.04 over 10.10. I tried Unity, and wasn't a great fan. When trying to use Ubuntu Classic at login, I get straaaaange visual effects, such as no window title bars. I went into Synaptic and removed Unity and installed GNOME, thinking that GNOME would then run when I chose Ubuntu Classic at login, and after some tweaking, like adding gnome-panel and metacity --replace to the startup applications, it did.
Now here is the problem. When I try to add any effects through CCSM, they don't do anything. Zero. Zilch. Nout. I did get some effects when I first installed Natty, but this was part of the reason why my title bars disappeared - after every effect was applied, I had to restart.

Ubuntu :: Tiling And Compiz Zooming Effect?
Jan 22, 2011I'm pretty new to ubuntu/linux and my knowledge about window managers is limited, so please bare with me. I was wondering if anyone knows a decent wm that supports tiling and can also have the zoom effect from compiz (mod+scroll up/mod+scroll down). I know compiz can achieve some tiling with the grid addon but that's not that great. I was looking for something more similar to how xmonad manages windows and workplaces.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFedora :: Gnome Desktop Wallpaper Changes Don't Stay In Effect After Reboot
Jun 9, 2010This is something that I started to notice in F12 and it appears to be the case as well in F13. Any changes that I make to my desktop wallpaper in Gnome don't stay in effect after a reboot. Any ideas as to what is going on here? I don't mind the default blue swirly thing in F13, but I at least want the style change from scale to center to stick.
Choosing the 'set as default' option doesn't seem to help either, as that changes the screen you see at the Gnome login. Once I log into my account the default desktop wallpaper is still there.
Ubuntu :: Compiz Headtracking Hall Of Mirrors Effect?
Dec 8, 2010recently I managed to install a plugin for Compiz that allows for head tracking. After getting past one hurdle after another I finally managed to compile it and made the webcam work with it in a 64-bit environment... Unfortunately, after I got this all working, the plugin constantly glitches out by zooming out immensely, distorting my desktop, and gives me a hall of mirrors effect. I know the plugin works because if I set some settings to minimum effect, it successfully tracks me and positions windows accordingly. But this makes the effect all jumpy and only works for periods of about 1.5 seconds then just doesn't do anything after that. Also, mouse tracking works flawlessly.

Also when i place my mouse on the top right of the screen it brings it to a choosing window type mode where you can pick which window you would like to open, is it possible to get this on the top left of the screen instead?

Ubuntu :: Do Env Vars Set In .bashrc Not Effect The Gnome Desktop
Feb 15, 2011I've installed python2.7 and I want all those convenient python libs I've installed from the repos to work with python2.7, but the libs in the repos get installed to python2.6.
No problem, I'll just set the $PYTHONPATH env var so that python2.7 will look at the python2.6 libs. I defined $PYTHONPATH as I wanted in the .bashrc file, and now python2.7 works as I desire when starting it from the shell.
The problem is when I start python2.7 from the gnome desktop (by clicking an application shortcut or button) it doesn't work. My guess is that the env vars set in .bashrc do not effect the gnome desktop, and so my question is what can I do to set an env var on the desktop?
To demonstrate my problem. If I open a bash shell and type "idle-python2.7 -n" idle will open, and I can "import twisted" without any problem in the idle python shell. However, if I do alt-f2 and run "idle-python2.7 -n" idle will still open but sys.path is not set as I would like and I cannot "import twisted". So there is clearly different behavior between an application started from the shell vs one started from the gnome desktop.
Environmental variables have long confused me, I'm also open to other solutions to my "getting python2.6 libs to run in python2.7" problem.
FULL INSTRUCTION: Both .bashrc and .gnomerc are located in your home directory. Put the following at the end of both files:
You should now be able to import the python libs installed from the repos in python2.7.

OpenSUSE :: KDE 4.5 Desktop Effects - Turn Off The Jerky Dimming Effect
Jun 11, 2011Just installed openSUSE 11.4 which comes with KDE 4.5. It has taken a while for me to find my way around and I am still trying to change settings so that VLC is default multimedia app rather than Amarok or similar. how to turn off the jerky dimming effect which was being applied when I close a window. Out of interest does anybody know what memory and cpu overhead these effect costs and how many lines of code? More to the point does anybody know who needs them?
When using Dolphin with column view does anybody know how to have the left margin shown rather than the right. As it is now, with long files names, the right hand end of the filename is shown and to see the directories I have to use a slider to scroll back to the left. I do not recall this being the case before. It used to be that the long file name was cut off unless one scrolled. In that way you could see all the directories and when moving files life was simple. Now this is not the case and actions take longer.
OpenSUSE Hardware :: Which Driver For ATI Radeon HD 4800 - Desktop Effect
Dec 24, 2009When I first installed openSUSE 11.2, it has no xorg.conf of course, but it detected the subject card and loaded radeon instead of radeonhd. When I used Sax2 to create an xorg.conf for a problem, I noticed that it for the device it created:
[Code]....
When I rebooted with this xorg.conf, lsmod says that it's still radeon that is loaded:
[Code]...
I know that radeonhd does cause some issues with KDE desktop effects, but according to Radeon - openSUSE, the cards above X1900 should be using radeonhd. Instead of either of these, should I try to use the ATI driver fglrx? It seems from my gleaning of forum posts that these have some problems, but I am having some desktop effect issues that maybe would be addressed with that driver.

The vesa driver is not capable of running Compiz, you need to install the proper driver for your graphics card. I tried with newer kenel, but no luck. I tried to install the newer driver from intel. I am not quite sure I managed to install them properly, though. Is this the appropriate sub-forum for this topic, or "hardware and laptops".
