Compiz Fusion

[hecia13]

I am a new sabayon user, previously I had OpenSuse 10.2. and compiz-fusion worked perfectly. I have the new 3.4a version of sabayon, and I cannot activate compiz-fusion in any way If I enable 3D acceleration, the system becomes slooow as a snail, windows open forever... And I lose the the windows decorations - this happens in case of both Emerald and Kwin. Any suggestions?

For anyone trying to get the ccsm package installed you need to change the ebuild.

As root, edit the ebuild /usr/portage/local/layman/sabayon/x11-apps/ccsm/ccsm-9999.ebuild

You need to delete the part, near the bottom of the page like this:

src_compile() {
cd ${S}
./autogen.sh || die "autogen failed"

econf || die "econf failed"
emake || die "make failed"
}

src_install() {
make DESTDIR="${D}" install || die "make install failed"
}



The new code (near the bottom of the page) should look like this:

src_compile() {
cd ${S}
./setup.py build --prefix=/usr
}

src_install() {
./setup.py install --root=${D} --prefix=/usr
}



After you have saved then open up a root konsole in the /usr/portage/local/layman/sabayon/x11-apps/ccsm/ directory and type "ebuild ccsm-9999.ebuild digest" (without quotes)

Good luck

Thanks Dave. That worked. I haven't been able to use ccsm for a few days.

Thanks dave_p_b. That cleared up my confusion. Works as advertised now.
