The project has recently been picked up - and is being actively maintained by the compiz-reloaded team. - You can still use the 0.8.8 version of the compiz that ships - with Slackware with the companion packages since there has not been - any ABI changes to the code. But there is a good chance you will run - into stabilty issues if you do, so it is HIGHLY recommended you use - the version of compiz that matches the companion packages. Because - you will be replacing a stock Slackware package the SlackBuild is - not hosted at www.slackbuilds.org. You can download the SlackBuild - from the link below. - - https://www.dropbox.com/s/t08cb1u00he4cyo/compiz-0.8.14-SlackBuild.tar.gz - - This SlackBuild is based off the 14.2 stock Slackware SlackBuild so you - shouldn't run into any problems. If you do use this version of compiz you - will need to blacklist compiz in your /etc/slackpkg/blacklist file to keep - slackpkg from reverting the package back to 0.8.8 - -2) Compiz now has basic support for the MATE desktop. You will have to install - MATE before you install compiz for support. The MATE slackware project - website is located here https://mateslackbuilds.github.io/ - -3) The compizconfig-backend-kconfig4 package has been removed from the - project so if you are upgrading from a previous version you will want - to remove this package. Also compiz-plugins-unsupported has now been - renamed to compiz-plugins-experimental so you will need to remove - compiz-plugins-unsupported before you upgrade to the newest packages. - -4) The install order has compiz listed twice. libcompizconfig depends - on compiz, but compiz has some extra window decorator related features - that depend on libcompizconfig. So if you want these extra features you - will have to recompile compiz again AFTER you build and install - libcompizconfig. This is not required it is just an option if you want - to do it. - -5) After you install compiz and the companion packages you will need to - launch CCSM and enable "Move", "Resize Window", and "Window Decorations" - before you start compiz. This way you can manage your windows. After - you enable those three options you can start compiz and customize to - your liking. - - - - - |
