Compiz: No GLXFBConfig for default depth


It seems everybody's having problems with Compiz today, eh?

Anyway, I'm trying to get Compiz-fusion to work on Opensuse 10.3. My video card is an NVIDIA GeForce 6200.

NVIDIA drivers are installed and 3D acceleration is enabled. I installed compiz-fusion via One-click install and everything seemed to go fine.

However, when I run "fusion-icon" all windows lose their decoration and the effects won't work.

This is what I get:

Code:
raziel@linux:~> fusion-icon
 * Detected Session: kde
 * Searching for installed applications...
 * NVIDIA on Xorg detected, exporting: __GL_YIELD=NOTHING
 * Using the GTK Interface
 * KWin is already running
 * Setting window manager to Compiz
 ... executing: compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp
compiz: Trying '/usr/$LIB/libIndirectGL.so.1'
compiz (core) - Fatal: No GLXFBConfig for default depth, this isn't going to work.
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0
This is my xorg.conf file:

Code:
# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig

if you're using the latest Nvidia drives (169.07) you need to start compiz with "compiz --no-libgl-fallback --replace ccp&"

I solved this problem by writing a tiny shell script that adds the option to the compiz call.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/compiz --no-libgl-fallback $*
`which compiz` should point to the script so that fusion icon will start the script instead of starting compiz directly.

In the compiz-fusion forums they suggest using "LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 /usr/bin/compiz --no-libgl-fallback"

And how can I do that?

So what I tried to say with "make 'which compiz' point to your script" is that the script should be in your PATH before the original /usr/bin/compiz.
So your ~/bin might be a good place, or /usr/local/bin (if you want to provide it to all users on your machine)

compiz (core) - Fatal: No GLXFBConfig for default depth

I'm having the same issue some years later, and the nolibgl-fallback param is not reckognized.


Code:
compiz (core) - Fatal: No GLXFBConfig for default depth, this isn't going to work.
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
