I'm running an SL6.5 system, with the proprietary Nvidia drivers. I
want to continue to use compiz, as I desire its edge-flipping abilties.
Some versions ago, the Nvidia drivers started exposing a bug in the
synchronization with X11 redraws, often leaving windows partially
drawn. For a while, I've just stayed at an older Nvidia version, but
the recent Xorg update seems to have ruled out that possibility. I
found a compiz patch, and started trying to build my own version. It
fails to load, with messages like:
compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't load plugin 'decoration'
(and also "plane").
So then I tried to yum reinstalls of the SL compiz packages, and those
errors continue.
So I am looking for assistance in any of several ways:
(1) pointers to a repo that has a patched compiz package that will run
on an SL6 system
(2) hints as to how to do the configure for compiz so that everything I
want will be built - right now, the configure (for compiz 0.8.2) ends with:
the following optional plugins will be compiled:
glib: yes
gconf: yes
kconfig: no
dbus: yes
annotate: yes
svg: yes
inotify: yes
fuse: no
and the following optional features will be compiled:
gtk: no
metacity: no
gnome: no
kde: no
kde4: no
(3) hints as to how to fix my damaged compiz installation to at least
get back to the previous situation.
Thanks,
Andy S.
