Porteus

sorry freestyler your suggestions didnt work, i've given up on this endeavor any way, theres got to be an easier way to get an opengl compositor

i got so close, ccsm loads up the settings window correctly and i installed fusion-icon but when i run it from the terminal i get this: guest@porteus:~$ fusion-icon * Detected Session: /usr/bin/startxfce4 * Searching for installed applications... * NVIDIA on Xorg detected, exporting: __GL_YIELD=NOTH...

thanks for the help, i'm going away this weekend but i'll definitely work on it when i get back

maybe if you show me what you have done so far i could try and do the rest.

do you know how to compile from source?

thanks i really appreciate it, lol cheap port

i am using xfce, didnt like kde with its million features i'll never use

now i'm having trouble with libmetacity-private again porteus says its corrupt

i'd be very grateful if you could make a working xzm for me thank you

i tried installing all the deb packages that you suggested and all their deps, but i got stuck on libcanberra-gtk as porteus says the module is corrupt even after redownloading a few times. i'm no good at compiling from source so i'm at a bit of a loss, since i cant find any other binaries. i need a...

slackware repo only has standard compiz-0.8.8 which doesnt even have the settings manager

debian repo seems to have compiz fusion but only version 0.8.4 and i'm a bit confused with the packages since dependency resolution doesnt work for me with debian repo

any help please?

i have found the solution the problem was indeed missing files from the x86_64 version of the nvidia driver. i cross checked the /usr/lib folders from the x86_64 driver and the i486 driver both 319.32 the i486 version contains extra files and folders as shown below: usr/lib/tls/ usr/lib/xorg/ usr/li...

This is very strange. heres what i've tried using 64bit porteus and a 32bit wine game using open source driver: os works fine and wine works fine using 32 bit nvidia driver: os works but has display problems, wine works but has display problems - i'm guessing this driver isnt supposed to be used wit...

your right i didnt have that driver installed at that time, i've now installed it correctly and the terminal shows the driver with your command

i then checked my /usr/lib again and all libs seem to be there, except the /usr/lib/nvidia folder is missing which should have libGL.so

if your using 32bit wine make sure you also have the compat32 module, alternatively you can use the 64 bit version which is on the 64 bit modules part of this forum. wine can be run from the terminal like this: wine myprogram.exe or you can just double click from your file manager, just make sure yo...

does compat32 include ia32-libs? if not how do i get those? another lib that might help is lib32-nvidia-utils, details here: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/multilib/x86_64/lib32-nvidia-utils/files/ I checked and those libs are not installed. @wread wine is setup correctly as its working fine wit...

compat32 didnt make any difference. guest@porteus:~$ find /lib -type f -maxdepth 1 | xargs ldd | grep 'not found' loader cannot load itself libudev.so.0 => not found guest@porteus:~$ find /usr/lib -type f -maxdepth 1 | xargs ldd | grep 'not found' libudev.so.0 => not found libssl.so.0 => not found l...
