T 1201918918 1Klos>    hi what do i need to do to activate that desktop cube?
T 1201918953 1Jupiter1t>       !viewports | Kloss
T 1201918954 1FusioBo> Kloss: For the cube, you should always set in !ccsm > General Options > Desktop Size: "Number of desktops" to 1, "Vertical virtual size" to 1, and "Horizontal virtual size" to the number of sides you want on the cube. For the wall plugin, you can change "Vertical virtual size" as well.
T 1201919312 1Klos>    i have an ATI radeon 9600 graphic card. is it enough then either to activate the propriery driver or to install an xgl package? i want my desktop to look like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZD7QraljRfM
T 1201919340 1Jupiter1t>       !ati | Kloss
T 1201919340 1FusioBo> Kloss: Compiz requires at least a Radeon 7000 (or M6). From the 7000 to the X1050, you can use AIGLX with the open source "ati" driver. All cards newer than the X1050 and the Xpress 200(M) must use the proprietary fglrx driver + Xgl. Alternatively, those cards can use the 8.42.3 (or newer) version of the fglrx drivers and use AIGLX, but this is currently slower than fglrx+Xgl.
T 1201919440 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: difficult for me to find out where my video card belongs to?!?!? help!
T 1201919619 1Klos>    as far as i can see. aiglx is enough for mine.
T 1201919643 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: yea from what i gather that is correct
T 1201919669 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/ATI_with_AIGLX
T 1201919691 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: so setting aiglx up for gutsy i can use this description? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/AIGLX
T 1201919715 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: or that.

T 1201921251 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: hmm.... this howto did not work very well: http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/ATI_with_AIGLX
T 1201921270 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: i had to run my desktop in low graphic mode then. :-)
T 1201921287 1Klos>    after pushing ctrl+alt+backspace
T 1201921312 1Klos>    or should i have made a newstart?
T 1201921320 1Klos>    sorry restart?
T 1201921486 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: restarting X should have been enough
T 1201921557 1Klos>    i mean is this how to the right thing? i have xorg version 7.2.5. ubuntu 13
T 1201921624 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: yes that is the right one for that
T 1201921640 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: what does glxinfo | grep -i direct say
T 1201921711 1Klos>    it says direct rendering: yes
T 1201921811 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: so shall i try it again and make a restart after the editing?
T 1201921821 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: yea i would
T 1201921829 1Klos>    or shall i just use the proprietary driver?
T 1201921884 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: a ati guru would be best to answer that, i am not one
T 1201921908 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: hmm... i will try editing once again.

T 1201922260 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: it seems to work after the restart. i made a restart instead of ctrl+alt+backspace.
T 1201922289 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: now i have to do this: Now, restart your X server (by pressing <Control><Alt>backspace). When you log back in, it should be possible to run Compiz. Due to the fact that you are using AIGLX, you need to tell your 3D driver to use indirect rendering. This is done by setting the environment variable before the compiz command. What you enter in the terminal should look like this:
T 1201922289 1Klos>        *
T 1201922289 1Klos>           LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true compiz --replace --indirect-rendering --sm-disable ccp &  ?????
T 1201922291 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: excellent
T 1201922334 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: now i need to type in this: LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true compiz --replace --indirect-rendering --sm-disable ccp &  ???
T 1201922356 1Klos>     Jupiter1tx: with sudo before?
T 1201922384 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: never use sudo for starting a app as a user
T 1201922398 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: what is this good for? can i then use that graphical advanced stuff?
T 1201922430 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: i don't understand
T 1201922449 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: what is this last command good for?
T 1201922529 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: oh wow. i got this: namibia@namibia-desktop:~$ LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true compiz --replace --indirect-rendering --sm-disable ccp &

T 1201923004 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: is the emerald theme package available in synaptic?
T 1201923058 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: also keep in mind that you can modify those themes although i would save them under a new name when you modify them so you can retain the original so that you can use it again to modify in another way
T 1201923061 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: gutsy?
T 1201923086 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: yes gutsy.
T 1201923118 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: i do not think it is in gutsy

T 1201923169 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: well i found it. where can i activate it and also the cube? where is all that nice graphic stuff. that brightens my heart?
T 1201923173 1Klos>    :-)
T 1201923216 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: make sure to install the compizconfig-settings-manager, then use ccsm to enable and adjust the plugins
T 1201923241 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: ccsm=compizconfig-settings-manager
T 1201923337 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: i installed ccsm and also emerald before. :-) i also once got that cube working. where is that cube again?
T 1201923361 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: ccsm > Desktop Cube
T 1201923401 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: ccsm as a command in the terminal?
T 1201923428 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: yes
T 1201923502 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: but once there was also another way to get there. when i used the proprietary  ati driver this menu was included in the desktop adjustments. you know?
T 1201923573 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: yes that i am not familiar with, Integration into your DE, i personally do not use an integrated backend and prefer to use the simpler flat-file backend with ccsm
T 1201923656 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: no prob. that command ccsm is also very fine.
T 1201923784 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: do you know how this emerald theme i showed you on youtube is called???
T 1201923905 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: that looks like a modified Adonis theme
T 1201924016 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: omg. ... some effect are already working. i just need to activate an emerald theme. i cannot wait for it, but the server is down. :-( WAHHHHHH :-)

T 1201924202 1Jupiter1t>       Kloss: ooh yea i know about it, some of my friends have been working overtime to do some re-routing, it is not effecting compiz at all
T 1201924283 1Klos>    Jupiter1tx: you and your friends seem to be very important IT specialists?
T 1201924305 1DanThirs>Kloss: yeah i heard about that on NPR
