No title bar when running compiz in AIGLX

[mehulved]

I followed this link to install AIGLX *www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=145068&highlight=install+AIGLX. But now I don't get title bar in while running compiz.
I tried a couple of things to get it working like, download cgwd, start compiz from terminal as

 compiz --replace

.
But, all these methods have failed.
I am using onboard video memory. It is detected as savage.
Here's a screenshot

I am attaching my xorg.conf file too in case it's needed.
I can't get any effects of AIGLX working .

hmmm...man I though YOU WERE the expert.

 

[kalpik]

Hehe.. even experts need help from time to time! I do have an idea about XGL.. Though after the conversation i had with you, i think most probably its the 16 bit colour depth that's keeping you from running AIGLX. Get a new gfx card

 

[QwertyManiac]

You downloaded CGWD, but did you run it ? I know its kind of a foolish question but you have to run it and choose a theme to get the titlebars... so if you havent done that try it :]

 

[kalpik]

He's already tried that Qwerty..

 

[mehulved]

Yes i tried all that. Actually I have been breaking my head over it since quite a few days.
I tried to edit lots of things in xorg.conf file and had to reconfigure my xserver lots of times but still no luck yet. It seems the 16-bit depth is the problem and I hopefully find the solution this week. But, I can't even rotate the cube, either.

 

[JGuru]

Yeah, @Kalpik is right. @Tech_your_future, your Graphics card is the culprit!!
Get a new good Graphics card. Your problem will be solved.

Well let's see I might get one this week. But, then I won't have ubuntu. So, well I want to see if I can get it working on ubuntu. Or else I will be trying XGL on gentoo, atleast that's the plan.
BTW, I have none for now.

Do u have "gnome-window-decorator &" running/restarted
more in gentoo wiki
Best O' LUX

 

[mehulved]

That would be cgwd, right? cgwd is running.

 

[QwertyManiac]

*www.compiz.net/topic-2252-window-decorator
Try that thing mentioned there maybe?

 

[mehulved]

OK That is compiz themer, now it's replaced with cgwd as you have seen with XGL, so it's no more applicable. Anyways I tried playing around with it, let me see if it works.

I have not tried AIGLX or XGL but looking at the screenshot, it seems that your window manager is crashing. Try running your window manager under gdb and see whether it is crashing or not. If it is, then you will at least have a definite path to walk on.

Also, why are you loading GLcore module? The thread you linked us to, suggests against doing it.

 

[praka123]

when i tried XGL in my 915GV+15" S/T monitor,it showed atleast a res of 1024*768 is needed...

 

[mehulved]

Well I did disable loading of GLCore after I made this post and later I even enabled 24bit depth. Still it's the same problem.

 

[technomodel]

you can try one thing..if u havent already done it..
go to this url and insert the calculated modeline under the monitors subsection in your xorg.conf. also update the screens subsection with the selected resolution.

of course..this will work only ur monitor is holding u back..which it might not as it is being detected..

hope this helps.

 

[kalpik]

Try to disable the reflection plugin from gconf-editor (apps->compiz->general->all screens->active_plugins)

 

[mehulved]

No it still doesn't help out.

 

[eddie]

Did you check the crashing part? Do you find anything unusual in Xorg logs?

 

[mehulved]

I didn't get how to use gdb yet. I did a couple of tries but didn't get the right syntax. I haven't checked Xorg logs yet. I will check up on both as soon as I get enough time.
