Hence in the build directory the full configuration command was:Ĭmake -DUSE_KDE4=false -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr. I installed in the standard location to avoid having to set additional library paths: You also have to nominate a location for the installation which by default will otherwise be /usr/local. I worked around this by disabling the KDE window decorator option: Currently on Gentoo the 0.9.10.2 default compile configuration won't work because of a missing header file kdecorationbridge.h. You need to run cmake with flags indicating the location of the installation and the options and plugins to install. This creates a compiz directory in the location where you have entered this command.
#HOW TO INSTALL ADOBE FLASH GENTOO LINUX CODE#
Obtaining the latest source code is straightforward as described here: Note that simple-ccsm (simple Compiz Configuration Settings Manager) is not currently available for the latest version of Compiz.įortunately, all the sources for Compiz have now been merged into one repository, which makes configuration, compilation and installation much easier.
To install the latest release of compiz you have to remove all Compiz components if they have been installed through Portage. This being said, I have ended up with a useful and fully-functioning Compiz desktop under Gentoo. Hence it's not critical if something breaks. I use my Gentoo installation as a sandbox as well as a working tool, a way of keeping up to date with, and learning new, Linux skills. It's important to note that the procedure described here shouldn't be followed if it's critical you don't break your system. There are more display setting options in the later version and, possibly because of this, it works better with Flash videos. The reason appears to be that Ubuntu is running the latest release of Compiz (0.9.10.2) whereas the version available through portage is 0.8.8 (described as "the latest stable release" on ). I tested this on Ubuntu and Gentoo and the results were markedly better in Ubuntu. in this forum post) that the issue can be resolved by running Compiz as your window manager with its Sync to VBlank setting enabled. If you have this issue with Flash videos embedded in browsers, the effect can be seen clearly in this Youtube video. The aim here is video playback without screen tearing in Linux, a common issue with Adobe Flash.
