  1. I get the following message in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log and was wondering if anyone else was getting it:

    [  1312.812] (II) RADEON(0): Use GLAMOR acceleration.
    [  1312.812] (II) RADEON(0): Acceleration enabled
    [  1312.812] (==) RADEON(0): DPMS enabled
    [  1312.812] (==) RADEON(0): Silken mouse enabled
    [  1312.812] (EE) RADEON(0): Failed to set up textured video (glamor)
    

    Does anyone know what implications this has / how I can resolve it?

  2. I have had similar problems in the past with ati-drivers and a working framebuffer. Uvesafb provides support for a working framebuffer when using proprietary drivers like ati-drivers or the nvidia drivers. You could try installing klibc and v86d, and then try altering your boot flags to include something like

    video=uvesafb:<your resolution>-32,mtrr:3,ywrap. If the required kernel options are enabled in the pre-built sources, you should be able to get video. Follow the below link for more info:

  3. Hey all,

     

    I recently moved from XFCE to i3wm because the concept of a tiling window manager sounded intriguing to me. I've been using i3 for a couple of days now and have found that I enjoy it quite a lot. I have looked through the i3wm user's guide and was wondering if anyone on here knew of some good resources regarding learning more about customizing i3?

     

    Thanks!

  4. A few weeks ago I read a post on some forum (I think the Arch Forums) that documented a piece of Python code that "selected" the color in a desktop wallpaper that was the most common in the wallpaper (or something to that effect) and incorporated that color into a gtk+ theme. This sort of behavior is similar to the taskbar and window borders in Windoge 8+ being colored based on the wallpaper currently set. I have lost the link and could not find it again in my brief ten minute searching of Google. I was wondering if anyone on here knows what I am talking about and could direct me to a page where I can learn more about this?

     

    Thanks!

  5. I recently made the switch from fglrx to the radeon drivers for my video cards. The installation and modifications to the kernel went well and my system booted correctly. However, when I ran my compositor, compton, with backend glx things slowed down -- specifically, window dragging was very slow and laggy -- almost like a vsync issue. This led me to check my X.org log, where I found the following:

    EDIT: I am also getting the following error:

    [   996.530] (EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering
    [   996.531] (II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized swrast
     

    My specs, if they will be useful:

    • xorg-server-1.16.1-r4
    • xf86-video-ati-7.5.0
    • mesa-10.3.5
    • llvm-3.5.1
    • Radeon HD 7850

    Any ideas as to how I can re-enable direct rendering and acceleration / resolve the problem with GLamor?

  6. Hey Deklan. Thanks for the reply!

    However, I have that option unchecked and only get a preview of the window's icon, not the window itself.  I am trying to get the third picture from this link [http://www.xfce.org/about/tour] and can only get the 1st and 2nd pictures (by checking and unchecking the "Cycle through windows in a list" option). Do I have to be using XFCE's compositor to do this, or can I get the previews using a compositor such as compton?

     

    Thanks!

     

    EDIT: I just found the answer. Apparently the preview mode only works with XFCE's native XRender compositor, not with compton.

  7. I just visited the forums and was greeted by a red page in Opera that warned me that forums.funtoo.org should not be visited because it distributes malware. I clicked the "precede anyway" button and the page loaded OK. On a possibly unrelated note, the theme on the page was completely black and had a picture of some computer game as the background. Not the usual white theme with a beachy background. Anyway, I visited http://www.scamvoid.com/check/forums.funtoo.org and found that the Russian search engine Yandex had reported the site to be distributing malware to the WOT (Web Of Trust). See this link (https://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/forums.funtoo.org/event-40321#events) for information on the report. Does anyone here know anything about malware on this domain? Just curious.

  8. I've been working on a desktop based on Openbox and Compton for the past week or so..Here is what I have so far.
