Description Rex Dieter 2010-09-23 21:29:42 UTC
For tracking purposes, when/if we do a kde-4.5 update for f13, compiz-kde will need love/testing (since it's known to use kwin internal/unstable apis).

My quick-n-dirty test just now using 
$ rpm -q compiz-kde kdebase-workspace
compiz-kde-0.8.6-1.fc13.x86_64
kdebase-workspace-4.5.1-0.1.fc13.x86_64

yields no kde decorator

Comment 2 Kevin Kofler 2010-09-23 21:39:03 UTC
This probably needs fixing on F14 and devel too. It's the same version (0.8.6) everywhere (except F12 which will probably not get an official KDE 4.5 update).

Comment 3 Kevin Kofler 2010-09-25 02:58:22 UTC
KDecorationBridgeUnstable has not changed between 4.4 and 4.5:
http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/4.4/kdebase/workspace/kwin/lib/kdecorationbridge.h?view=log
http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/4.5/kdebase/workspace/kwin/lib/kdecorationbridge.h?view=log

The reason it's not working must be more subtle.

Comment 4 Kevin Kofler 2010-09-25 02:59:02 UTC
(And there aren't any 4.5 fixes in Compiz git, neither in master nor in compiz-0.8.)

Comment 5 Rex Dieter 2010-09-25 16:40:54 UTC
sorry for the false alarm, seems ok afterall.

Last time I just tried: compiz --replace
   =>  no window decoration

this time:  kde-desktop-effects.sh 
  to toggle to compiz, and all is happy.
