Package: compiz
Version: 0.6.3~git20080115.0ea58487-1
Severity: normal
Hi.
After many unsuccessful installations of compiz on my machine, I
discovered that the call "compiz --replace" didn't work because compiz
thinks that my hardware doesn't have an extension that it seems to have:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ compiz.real --replace
compiz.real (core) - Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing
compiz.real (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz.real (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
But if I see the extensions supported by glxinfo, then I *do* get
GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap reported:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ glxinfo | grep texture_from_pixmap
GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap,
GLX_SGIX_visual_select_group, GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
My system uses an Intel on-board 865G chipset with 32MB of RAM shared
with the main system memory. I'm using a Pentium D 805 here, if memory
serves me well.
I'm not sure right now, but I think that the compiz package in the
installation/live CD uses direct rendering (well, it is much faster than
what I get with Debian via the option --indirect-rendering, even when
used with the CD).
Please, any help is appreciated. Also, let me know if any further
information is necessary/desired.
Thanks for your efforts, Rogério Brito.
