X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: yuri@rawbw.com List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 17 Feb 2010 21:04:18 -0000 I have the latest NVidia driver and the card is 9400GT. In "Configure Window Behavior" screen I first check "Enable desktop effects". Then it says that "Compositing is temporarily disabled". When I click "Resume Compositing" sometimes nothing happens at all. But sometimes after few clicks it says that it's now enabled. But after that when I open this screen again it says it is "temporarily disabled" again. No explanation is given. xorg.conf has this section: Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Enable" Option "MIT-SHM" "Enable" EndSection And Xorg.log acknowledges this: (**) Extension "Composite" is enabled (**) Extension "MIT-SHM" is enabled What's wrong? Compositing and effects used to work almost fine before. Except for the black windows problem. Yuri
