Good morning all, I am new to linux so please pardon if this a dumb question or I have failed to look for the solution in some obvious place.
I have installed debian testing (etch) and after some effort was able to get kdm and KDE running on start-up. I did some configurations, details of which I do not remember, but since then after start up I get the two error pop-ups. The first says Composite Manager crashed twice in one minute and has been disabled for this session. The second pop-up says: Composite extension not found. You must use XOrg ≥ 6.8 for translucency and shadows to work. Additionally, you need to add a new section to your X config file: Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Enable" EndSection My questions are as follows: What is composite manager? How do I find out which version of XOrg I am using? Can I upgrade to XOrg ≥ 6.8> How? How do i turn off Composite Manager. I am not a member of this list. I will monitor the archives, but will appreciate if copied on the follow-ups. Thanks in advance, - hemal
