compiz fusion 0.8.8

[linuxnoob]

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:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ fusion-icon
 * Detected Session: /usr/bin/startxfce4
 * Searching for installed applications...
 * NVIDIA on Xorg detected, exporting: __GL_YIELD=NOTHING
 * Using the GTK Interface
 * Starting Compiz
 ... executing: compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp
sh: lspci: command not found
sh: lspci: command not found
compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't load plugin 'ccp'
compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't load plugin 'ccp'

running it from root doesnt help either, not sure where to go from here

EDIT: compiz seems to be running though but without any window decorations and it doesnt acknowledge the ccsm settings, so not very usable

pciutils-3.1.9-x86_64-1 will sort out lspci.
libcompizconfig-0.8.8 should sort out cpp

You'll probably want to become root first

yup

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

there is bunch of compiz related slackbuilds on slackbuilds.org:
http://slackbuilds.org/result/?search=compiz&sv=14.0

please go through them and read descriptions as i'm fairly sure they work fine once you set the build order correctly.
