Hey all, Anyone managed to get the eye candy in KDE working under optirun?
64bit Dell XPS 17 I have created an entry in /usr/share/xsessions to run "startkde" under optirun, that part works but the Desktop Effects option still wont work. When I run optirun kwin --replace (as suggested elsewhere) and try to enable Desktop Effects I get the following errors: dtbaker@Dellbuntu:~$ optirun kwin --replace OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL renderer string: GeForce GT 555M/PCI/SSE2 OpenGL version string: 4.1.0 NVIDIA 270.41.19 OpenGL shading language version string: 4.10 NVIDIA via Cg compiler Driver: NVIDIA Driver version: 270.41.19 GPU class: GF100 OpenGL version: 4.1 GLSL version: 4.10 X server version: 1.10.1 Linux kernel version: 2.6.38 Direct rendering: yes Requires strict binding: no GLSL shaders: yes Texture NPOT support: yes kwin(13437): Couldn't find framebuffer configuration for depth 32 (no ARGB GLX visual)! kwin(13437): Failed to initialize compositing, compositing disabled kwin(13437): Consult http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/KWin/4.0-release-notes#Setting_up I have also tried adjusting the /usr/bin/startkde script to use "optirun" when it starts kwin, and also tried adding "optirun kwin --replace" as a kde startup script, but these do not work. FYI: I have been able to enable KDE desktop effects (setting it via optirun) and the setting saves, then if I logout and log back in I get the laggy desktop effects running on the intel card. But if I logout and log back in under optirun the desktop effects setting becomes disabled. (if that makes sense). Any ideas? I'm new to KDE4 as of yesterday. Cheers heaps!
