Quick Xgl Tutorial for SUSE Linux 10.1

by @ 6:53 am. Filed under SUSE Tips & Tricks, Xgl

The easiest setup for Xgl is on the Gnome desktop (though most things also work on KDE) with an nVidia card. So, that’s what I did. When you are done with these steps, Gnome will be spectacular, and KDE will sport most of the features, though not all:

I don’t have a lot of time, but here is the quick and dirty version, not for the faint of heart. I will be writing a more user-friendly version of this tutorial for publication in CoolSolutions later this week, so stay tuned. For now, here’s how you can do what I did to make this work.

Open YAST. Install ‘make’, ‘gcc’, and ‘kernel-source’ packages.

Download your nVidia kernel module from http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp.

At the time of writing, the latest one was on http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-8756.html and was called NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8756-pkg1.run.

Log out of your current X session and switch to a terminal with the following key combination:

CTRL + ALT + F1 (note: opening a terminal window will not work, you must log out and go to a terminal)

Shut down your X server with this command:

init 3

Change directory to where you downloaded the nVidia drivers. Install said drivers with this command:

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8756-pkg1.run -q

You’ll get a little message about using sax to adjust your xorg.conf file. Do this with this command:

sax2 -r -m 0=nvidia (‘zero’=nvidia)

Log back into X with this command:

init 5

Open YAST, and install xgl and compiz.

As root, open your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. Find the “Device” section for your nVidia card. Change the “NoFlip” option to True. If it is not there, add it. Here’s mine:

Section "Device"
  BoardName    "GeForce4 MX 4000"
  BusID        "PCI:1@0:0:0"
  Driver       "nvidia"
  Identifier   "Device[0]"
  VendorName   "NVidia"
  Option       "NoFlip" "True"
EndSection

Next, find the “Extensions” section. If it’s not there, add it. Make it look like mine:

Section "Extensions"
  Option       "Composite" "off"
EndSection

As root, open your /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager file. Make the following changes:

DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER="Xgl"
DISPLAYMANAGER_XGL_OPTS="-accel glx:pbuffer -accel xv:fbo"

Save and exit. Run ‘SuSEconfig’ to update the system.

You need to verify that two symbolic links exist. One probably already will. Run this command:

ll /usr/X11R6/bin/X

And you should see something like this:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2006-04-11 21:58 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -> /var/X11R6/bin/X

If so, great, if not, make the link manually.

Delete a different symbolic link:

rm /var/X11R6/bin/X

Make the second link:

ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/Xgl /var/X11R6/bin/X

Close that terminal window.

Open a new terminal window. Run this command (not as root):

gnome-session-properties

Go to the Startup Programs tab.

Add the following startup program commands, then logout and log back in. Add both of these entire lines as separate commands:


compiz –replace gconf decoration wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom scale move resize place switcher

and

gnome-window-decorator

Log out of X.

Log back into Gnome (or KDE as your case may be).

You should have all your wicked Xgl stuff now.

If, after you log out of X and log back in a couple of times, your window borders and stuff are missing, take a look at my post for 2006-04-14 to fix this problem.

Again, I know this is kind of a rough draft, but I wanted to get it out there for people to start playing with. I will get a more refined one later in the week, which will be posted to Novell’s CoolSolutions. So there you go, have at it, and tell everyone you know to upgrade to SUSE 10.1 and try it out.

    part.

    Installation procedures like this have to become more Joe Average friendly!
    What´s keeping from having the installation script doing the necessary modifications and then requesting the user to log out/log in to restart the x server?

    /JK

  2. Scott Morris Says:

    You’re probably right. I’m going to re-write it to be way more user-friendly, which version I will post on CoolSolutions.

  3. hbons Says:

    How did you get the “Computer” menu? Wich rpm’s from factory do I have to install?

  4. Marcus Says:

    If you can work it out with kde and ati (yes I know, if I knew then what I know now I would have gone nvidia) that would be lovely :)

    Urm goes this stop 3d games working with it? I play Quake3,4 and a load under Cedega and was wondering if xgl breaks them.

    have fun

  5. Stephen Shaw Says:

    instead of doing rpm -i packages
    do yast -i packages

    this installs the rpms and registers them inside of yast

    Quick Xgl tutorial for SUSE Linux 10.1…

  7. Scott Morris Says:

    Marcus,

    I’m definitely gonna check in to KDE. I don’t know about the ATI thing, though. I don’t even have an ATI card. Makes it a little hard. :)

    Not sure about the 3D games, either. Maybe I’ll look into that a bit.

    Thx for stopping by.

  8. Scott Morris Says:

    Stephen,

    Great suggestion.

  9. Chris Says:

    Thanks for your work! But to comment on SUSE 10.1 and XGL in general:

    To be frank, if in 10.1 final the user is required to recompile the kernel and go through this whole procedure in order to get XGL running, then it’s a disgrace that SUSE prides itself to have introduced XGL with 10.1 .

    Simply because the vast majority of all SUSE users won’t ever be able to do it.

    I love SUSE but if XGL was most important to me I’d rather turn to a solution that simply works without such hassle – like Koroora.

    Really disappointing that SUSE doesn’t seem to manage to get at least a semi-automated solution working.

  10. Art Fore Says:

    Xgl is really cool, but I installed suse 10.1 beta 9 on my Dell Inspiron 8500, and it installed smp kernel and it is not an smp processor. On top of that, the smp kernel slowed the machine down 2-to-1 in KDE and 4-to-1 in Gnome compared to 10.0. I screwed up trying to get the default kernel instead of the smp kernel loaded and hosed the system, so just went back to 10.0. Maybe I will try again when it becomes finalized, but it is too much work to reinstall again. On top of that, I am trying to get parallels hypervisor to work, almost there, just usb problem they are working on.

    So, 10.1 is not for everyone yet, unfortunely.

    Art

  11. ./martijn Says:

    So, what does that “NoFlip� option do?!

    Rgrds, Martijn

  12. Scott Morris Says:

    Chris,

    Yeah, you’re right. It is a little painful to get it going right now. Remember, though, that 10.1 hasn’t been released as a final, stable release. I’m quite sure that some other way easier way to get this all going will come into effect. This is just barely the beginning of 3D-accelerated X capabilities. It will only develop further and become more stable from here. Hopefully then, more people can dig it.

    Thanks for your comments.

  13. Jim Potter Says:

    It seems to me that there is a simpler way to do this already published at http://en.opensuse.org/Using_Xgl_on_SUSE_Linux

    That is the guide that I used to get Xgl running on my 10.1 beta 9 system. It includes a section on running KDE on Xgl, and, in fact that is what I am using as I type this:

    Konqueror
    KDE 3.5.1
    Xgl & compiz
    OpenSUSE 10.1 beta 9

    It works very well for me and was easy to install; some of the more complicated steps that you list above were not needed.

    (I also found that the patched 8178 Nvidia driver worked better for me than the 8756 driver – although I ran Xgl on both.)

  14. rémi Says:

    It seemed easier when I followed that page:
    http://en.opensuse.org/Using_Xgl_on_SUSE_Linux
    it worked with KDE too, except that some keys seemed problematic.

    Anyway, the problem is that you lose some nice and usefull kwin features using it with KDE, also I had problems with video apps and some OpenGL apps like games, so I reverted to kwin.
    It will nice when kwin use it natively.

  15. joel Says:

    No, no, no you DO NOT need to reboot after installing nvidia drivers, this is not winbloze. Just “exec init 5″ when the driver install is done.

  16. Scott Morris Says:

    I guess it depends on your setup. I had to before it would “take”.

  17. joe Says:

    i don konw ?
    Everything is right!
    But…..
    Run this command:
    “gnome-windows-decorator”, so now …
    what is mean?
    “gnome-windows-decorator,Failed to load shadow images”
    my is suse 10.1 rc
    help me !
    thank you?

  18. Scott Morris Says:

    Sorry if you are having trouble. Open a terminal window and run ‘gnome-session-properties’. A window appears. Select the STARTUP PROGRAMS tab. Click the ADD button. A little window appears. Copy and paste this into it:

    compiz –replace gconf decoration wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom scale move resize place switcher

    Click OK.

    Click ADD again.

    Copy and paste this into the window that appears:

    gnome-window-decorator

    Log out and then log back in and you should be set.

    Thanks for stopping by.

  19. joel Says:

    Sorry Scott, I’ve been using linux for 12 years, and I’ve never had to reboot linux to update video drivers, or any other loadable drivers. You saw a condition which you chose to fix with a reboot, but my experience says that’s never neccessary – probably a quick ps -ef or look at the logs would have helped you avoid rebooting.

  20. Scott Morris Says:

    Yeah, bro, you’re probably right. :) So, what’s your longest uptime?

  21. joe Says:

    so,now,
    the windows freez!!
    i can not move it,
    i muss change DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER=”Xgl” into DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER=”Xorg”. so i can move the window once again
    anyway, i have not seen any 3Desktop in Control Center
    i use suse 10.1 RC
    how about yours? muss i first enabel 3D Desktop?
    thank you very much

  22. Scott Morris Says:

    You know, that is a great question. I d/l’ed SUSE 10.1 RC1 today, myself. I also was having trouble getting Xgl to work on it. I’ll do some research and see how I can help you.

  23. christian Says:

    hello, I’ve tried it on ubuntu and it works fine.
    But I want to try on My Suse 10.1 with an integrated gaphics card of intel, and precisily the intel 915 express…
    Are there anyone that know what I have to do?

  24. Rotmistr N Says:

    XGL work’s in 10.1 RC1 very well. You just need to repeat some steps – SuSEconfig –module xdm in terminal as root. After that You will have to restart x session. Furst start could be a little bit strange but than everything works.

  25. Richard Says:

    Referring to the first comment, I’d say I’m fine with that kind of install script. You’re getting new experimental software and the instructions are quite followable. just print the page and go. You also get explanation which is nice. Perhaps people may understand their computers more – which would be a good thing for Joe Average. With knowledge comes empowerment, and Linux is at least (to me anyway) predictable and understandable thanks to its modular nature.

    Installing new software in Windows is not any easier. Migrating through beta versions of Dot-Net-2 and SQL Server 2005 was very painful. Really – wiping the virtual machine down and starting again was always easier, then share the new virtual machine round the office once one user had got through the pain. Add in new Microsoft software like ADAM and ropey isn’t the word for it. Setting up would take at least half a day.

    In the future, not too long I expect, SuSE will come with all this XGL niceness installed and running out of the box. Then Joe Average will enjoy it with ease. Once setting up X took a lot of work. Hardware has got better – monitors can now feed back identification information so no reading timings out of the back of the manual – and so has hardware detection. XGL will soon be the same.

  26. jeremy Says:

    Followed the instructions and was able to get xgl working with gnome first try. I will now attempt kde since I’m more familier with KDE vs gnome. Looks great though. One question i can only flip to the top and bottom cube by holding ctrl + alt and left click and drag. in the demo i saw that he was using the top part of the cube as a desktop. Mine is all white and cant be used?

  27. Brent-o-boy Says:

    scott,

    when you polish this up, you need to seperate the “get NVIDIA working” part from the “get XGL working”

    wiggle, wiggle

    its pretty sweet actually.

    as far as ATI and Intel go, once you get the GL engine going, the rest of it should be the same for everyone. If Tuxracer rocks, then you are ready to skip to the part about:

    Section “Extensions”
    Option “Composite” “off”
    EndSection

    As root, open your /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager file. Make the following changes:

    DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER=”Xgl”
    …. etc.

    Also, we need some things to do to see the coolnes…

    drag a window, watch it wabble

    ctrl+alt + drag, rotate the cube
    ctrl+alt + left arrow (or right arrow) – rotate the cube
    click on desktop-n, in the desktop selector, watch it rotate.

    are there other cool tricks that can be done? can you flip a window like a pancake by Alt,p+q-middle click, or somethign crazy? what options are out there – anyone?

    -brent

  28. Scott Morris Says:

    Brent,

    You’re totally right. I’m writing one up for CoolSolutions, which will be all separated nice and everything.

    I’ll include the shortcut keys + mouse movements so as to be able to experience the coolness.

    Thx for the comments, yo.

    If you have dual nvidia cards (SLI), you must use:

  31. Hans Alexander Says:

    Love it!!! tnx a lot!

  32. Scott Morris Says:

    Yep, you bet.

  33. eamc2 Says:

    hi there! I was wondering if you can check a Spanish-written tutorial about using XGL with an ATI graphic card, in http://www.shutdown.com.mx/linux/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=19&Itemid=33, and tell me your opinion about it. Also, I want to know if you have a tutorial about using XGL without a nVidia or ATI graphic card that you can share with me.
    I’m using a SiS M760GX display adapter and I’m not sure if I could use XGL on my laptop.

  34. Scott Morris Says:

    That Spanish tutorial looks like it is probably ok for ATI users.

    In regards to the SiS cards, the process is generally the same. First, you get 3D acceleration set up and working for your card. Then, you install and configure Xgl and compiz. If you can get the 3D acceleration working on your video card, I’m sure that Xgl and compiz will work just fine for you. I don’t know of an Xgl tutorial that deals with using Xgl without nVidia or ATI. The only one that I know of is http://en.opensuse.org/Using_Xgl_on_SUSE_Linux .

  35. julio de hoyos Says:

    Hi, I don’t have any 3d acceleration card, but a friend of mine told me that i can activate 3d acceleration in my card with something called DRI, i want to know if it’s possible run Xgl with mesa support…and applying DRI…and how do I do that?

  36. acidphex Says:

    Has anyone had success with ATI 9000 with Xgl/Compiz on SUSE 10.1? I Haven’t tried the tutorials yet, but success stories would be cool to hear or see about.

  37. axobeauvi Says:

    since ATI won’t publish their source code or give any real specs
    it may never work
    I mean alot of people can’t get basic 3D with ATI

  38. Cory Starkes Says:

    hey, im having a bit of a problem.

    Xgl is working and everything, but im getting graphical glitches around the mouse

    this is on a fresh install of suse 10.1 with only the nvidia drivers and this xgl tutorial done on it so far, so there isnt anything really out of the ordinary going on.

    Any ideas?

  39. Sen Says:

    I’m trying SuSE tried this tutorial Yast cant find the xgl package. Im using the eval 10 rc4 discs. Would it be alot better if I reinstalled the 10.1 open suse?

  40. Tom Says:

    This isn’t required any more in 10.1 since the final release and will most likely complicate things. Once the relevent 3d drivers and Open GL is working, just use YaST to install xgl and compiz. XGL is simply enabled then from the tool in the Gnome Control Center. No file hacking, much cleaner and more stable. Trust me I’ve done it both ways.

  41. Open Source Heaven » XGL Links Says:

    [...] Install XGL on Suse [...]

  42. raf Says:

    the first monitor on my geforce3 vga is working perfectly with xgl. How can I enable the second monitor on the DVI interface ?

    thanks for your help ;)
    see ya!

  43. Stefano Says:

    I’ve been using SuSE for about a year now. I’m still a n00b, but understand most things.

    I have Xgl working 99%. the 1% that’s off is that I prefer KDE over Gnome. In KDE, the windows have no borders, and I can’t move them anywhere. Though when I SHIFT+Ctrl+Left/Right arrow, the open window will move along with the cube rotating.

    I just can’t click and drag. From what I’ve been reading, it appears that the windows decoration plugin isn’t loading. But I’m not sure how to go about fixing this in KDE.

    Cheers
    Stefano

  44. Tom Says:

    I’ve run into a snag setting this up:
    “xgl” does not come up in the search results using Yast.
    The rest has been done, and I’m hoping that I can just pick up where I left off once I find this elusive xgl.
    I’m looking forward to seeing this in action.

  45. Erik Fritsch Says:

    ATTN: SuSU 10.1 | Xgl | ATI Cards | KDE

    I’ve been working at this for a while, hard coding everywhere throughout the system trying go get Xgl to run. I always ran into the error where starting x would result in the .X0-lock error. I tried everything from runnin init 3 to totally shut down x then bringin back up level 5 and then deleting the .X0-lock file from the /tmp directory… all it gave me was a very broken GUI; tearing like crazy.

    I found a better solution!:

    [ Credit goes to Chromakode at http://tectonic.co.za/view.php?id=916 ]
    *note that he edits the ~/.Xsession file but SuSE doesn’t look there, it looks at ~/.xinitrc

    Check out that site for the gist, but here is what I did:

    I edited xorg.conf like so:

    Option “NoFlip” “True”
    Option “UseInternalAGPGART” “no”
    Option “KernelModuleParm” “agplock=0″

    Then I pasted this code into ~/.xinitrc with a little chmod +x ~/.xinitrc action

    #!/bin/sh
    # Start up Xgl, compiz, and KDE
    # Run Xgl server on :1, on top of normal X
    Xgl :1 -fullscreen -ac -accel xv -accel glx:pbuffer &
    # Tell subsequent X programs to access the Xgl server at :1
    DISPLAY=:1
    # Start Compiz window manager
    kde-window-decorator &
    compiz gconf decoration wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom scale move resize place menu switcher &
    # Start GNOME
    exec kde-session

    It works! Boots up great in KDE. Rendering is definitely slower; hopefully that will be resolved soon. If anyone has any tips on speeding up the acceleration, share it please!

  46. Erik Fritsch Says:

    Sooo, does anyone have any idea about 3D acceleration after Xgl works with ATI cards and KDE?

    I ran sax2 in run level 3 after getting Xgl to work and let it autodetect and reconfigure my xorg.conf settings. Everything runs smoothly now except games. If I try to run a game that needs 3D acceleration I get the good ol’ 3D Hardware Support Not Available message. I know that Xgl is using the 3D acceleration, but is this just a bug that now games cannot use the acceleration too? Any ideas?

    This is my fglrxinfo:

    Xlib: extension: “XFree86-DRI” missing on display “:1.0″.
    display: :0.0 screen:0

  47. neri Says:

    Hi, little panic here. First i followed this tutorial to get compiz working, then the april one to fix the plugin trouble (no windows buttons). Yet the windows are still buttonless, won’t move, etc…
    I’m running suse 10.1, with a geforce4 mx 4000.
    Any help would be appreciated :)

  48. neri Says:

    Update: I forgot to run suseconfig. Now i’ve done that… and 3d acceleration disappeared :( I tried to reinstall the nvidia drivers, yet it did no good. Any suggestion?

  49. Alan Greaves Says:

    Okay. I’m up to page 13 where it mentions “If it ‘wobbles’, you are good to go”, but mine doesn’t. Have triple-checked that my nVidia FX5700 is set to 3D, so now I’m stuck.

    1. One set of instructions says to install Xgl and Compiz packages, whilst another adds libsvg and libsvg-cairo packages.

    Tried both ways.

    2. One set of instructions says to run SuSeconfig, whilst another says to run SuSeconfig –module xdm.

    Tried both ways.

    3. “You’ll see a bunch of output scrolling up the screen”.

    I don’t see anything happening.

    4. Run this command: 11 /usr/X11R6/bin/X

    I get “command not found”.

    5. And you should see something like this:

    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2006-04-11 21:58 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -> /var/X11R6/bin/X

    I get nothing.

    6. Delete a different symbolic link: rm /var/X11R6/bin/X

    I get “Cannot remove: no such file or directory”.

    7. Make the second link: ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/Xgl /var/X11R6/bin/X

    I get “creating symbolic link ‘/var/X11R6/bin/X’ to ‘/usr/X11R6/bin/Xgl’: File exists.

    Please, can anyone throw any light on this. All other instructions check out exactly as explained. Also, the Control Centre – Desktop Effects Settings icon, the nVidia splashscreen and 3D checkbox are all present.

  50. Alan Greaves Says:

    Hmmm? This is from the Desktop Effects Settings:

    “Xgl is enabled.

    To disable it and return to the 2D desktop, press “Disable 3D Desktop” below. This will log you out and return you to the login screen.”

    So, why doesn’t it seem to be working?

  51. Alan Greaves Says:

    4. Run this command: 11 /usr/X11R6/bin/X

    Okay. Somebody has pointed out to me that the first two characters aren’t ones, but actually lowercase lls. That made a BIG difference to that instruction result.

  52. Alan Greaves Says:

    Seems I have xgl all set up and ready to go, but it doesn’t seem to allow me to do anything in the way of 3D options. I mean they’re there, but selecting the keystrokes/mouse options in the menus doesn’t seem to work at all.

  53. Alan Greaves Says:

    Well, if somebody had told me that “compiz –replace gconf” would fix Xgl in a few seconds, I wouldn’t have believed them, but it did and it all works now.

    Has only frozen once [luckily I had imaged it] and now only wish I could freeze the effects to take a ScreenShot of them. Are your samples from a digital camera perhaps?

  54. canz Says:

    nice easy guide

  55. craig Says:

    2.6ghz intel
    geforce fx5200

    had XGL up and running for a couple of months, just recently I checked the “save current settings” when logging out of GNOME, once I rebooted the desktop seemed to freeze as the windows manager icon appeared in the left hand corner of the boot picture. If left alone for a couple minutes it would finish booting. I closed everything and did another save current settings when logging out (saved current settings with nothing running) now my windows buttons are all gone, but just for that one user. Everything works fine under root….

    Does anyone have an intel 915GM? i want to run xgl+compiz in kde but i don’t know how
    i’m a newbie in linux, so please help me out

    Thanks

  57. Sierra1 Says:

    Is there any tutorial for ATi graphic cards and gnome for 32 bit?
    If there is please post a link

    @jorge:
    intel i915 works flawlessly without configuration if you use SLED10. Perfect for newbies!

  59. Jon G. Says:

    Hi there, I’ve managed to get XGL working in my KDE environment with all the ATI Drivers working in SuSE 10.1. My main problem at this point is that even if it renders the mouse and can randomly drag windows play with the desktop-cube, make some effects and fill in certain forms, most of the time doesn’t allow me to click in menus/windows/links/etc…

    The curious thing about this is that happens only in certain windows where sometimes works and others doesn’t, it just doesn’t follow a problem-pattern. Hope somebody can enlight me the way.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    Been foolin around for quite some time with Xgl and it works fine – then today I was trying to set up Dual Head setup and it broke my Xgl :-(

    Finally I’m back allmost, but eventhough I have all the plugins setup in gconf editor and even mention all of them in the gnome-session-proerties setup – then I loose “decoration” at reboot. When I reboot and startup it just gone – and starting up gconf-editor show exactly that, then I add it manually and viola its working fine (sometimes I also loose “wobbly” and “cube”. So somehow my settings either dont save right or get messed up by something else /and yea I have tried to exit the gconfeditor and enter it again to see if “decoration” is still there – and it is). It goes away either at logout and/or reboot.

    Im running SLED 10 and have had Xgl working superbly for months so this is a pain…

    Any ideas ? its driving me nuts !

    just a small update I have installed and had running XGL in openSuse 10.2 right out of the box in only a few clicks of the mouse. installed right from yast without needing to go to the command line.

    I couldn’t understand some parts of this article Quick Xgl Tutorial for SUSE Linux 10.1 – suse linux opensuse, but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.
