It's quite obsolete now, I suppose. x(vermaden said:xcompmgr?

bigtoque said:I've been interested in trying out cairo-compmgr too. I just found this site: http://ftp1.fr.freebsd.org/pub/frugalware/frugalware-current/source/x11-extra/cairo-compmgr. I downloaded the source and applied the two patches.
The autogen.sh file craps out:

I con't know how to get it working.
ring_zero said:It is not working because these patches are intended for Frugalware Linux. Cairo-Compmgr is not in the FreeBSD ports tree yet. If compositing is something that you just cannot live without, I suggest using compiz, or XFCE4 if you want a more lightweight solution. There is also Xcompmgr with Fluxbox/Openbox if you need an even more lightweight solution. As far as I can tell, these are the three compositing options available at the moment.
adamk said:KDE4 does compositing (not sure about KDE3, but it might) as well as gnome2.
