Compiz-fusion on Debian/Sid and Sidux
with KDE
by Francesco Palmisano

To use Compiz-fusion on Debian/Sid or Sidux it's enough adding
to your /etc/apt/sources.list
file the line:
deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/osrdebian/
unstable compiz-fusion-git
now, install all packages you need:
compiz-core
compiz-kde
compiz-plugins
compizconfig-setting-manager
compizconfig-backend-kconf
compiz-fusion-bcop
compiz-fusion-plugin-extra
compiz-fusion-main
compiz-fusion-unsupported
If you want to load Compiz-fusion automatically in every login section,
copy this
file into:
/home/tua-home/.kde/Autostart/
where tua-home
is the name of your home.
At last, you have to modify
/etc/X11/xorg.conf for the compiste extentions use, so at the end of
it add:
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
and in section ServerLayout
add:
Option
"AIGLX" "true"
and in section Module
add:
Load
"extmod"
Load
"glx"
If you have some problems with windows visualization, in
section Screen
add:
Option
"AllowGLXWithComposite" "True"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
Good! that's all, enjoy your cube!!
