Fedora 18 mate and compiz fusion
2 Attachment(s)
I nstalled Fedora 18 (Fresh install) then added the mate desktop... all good then i added compiz fusion which brings me to my 2 questions.
1) How can i make compiz start automatically at log in? I remember googling this before and solving it before in previous releases but cant find anything now. 2) When i start compiz in the terminal i get this output [root@localhost Nemesis]# compiz-mate-emerald compiz (video) - Warn: No 8 bit GLX pixmap format, disabling YV12 image format now compiz starts... i know because I get the effects... cube, wobbly windows, etc but i dont know how to describe it easily so here is a screen shot of before enabling and after.. is it just a setting that needs to be changed? |
You can autostart just about anything by placing its desktop file in ~/.config/autostart. If you need an example. I offer:
Code:
~/.config/autostart$ cat compton.desktop |
ok ill be honest this is an aspect of linux i have very little experience.. i found no such file in that location can I create one with that as the text?
|
this may be solved by having compiz auto start idk yet but in the terminal if i do this compiz starts and my border issue does not surface
[root@localhost Nemesis]# compiz --replace ccp & emerald --replace & [1] 2665 [2] 2666 [root@localhost Nemesis]# compiz (core) - Warn: SmcOpenConnection failed: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported compiz (video) - Warn: No 8 bit GLX pixmap format, disabling YV12 image format |
You can just create the file and the directory if they doesn't exist
