How do I set up compiz ? No xorg.conf anymore ?
Hi all,
How do I set up compiz. I downloaded compiz and the compiz-manager
using this wiki page.
http://wiki.debian.org/Compiz
I used the minimalist gtk option and then added the gnome-bit so that
it works with GNOME - The WM I use.
$ aptitude search compiz
p cairo-dock-compiz-icon-plugin - Cairo-dock - Compiz icon plug-in
p compiz - OpenGL window and compositing manager

Now I'm on an Intel machine (GMA31 chipset) and there's no /etc/X11/xorg.conf
$ ls /etc/X11
app-defaults twm Xreset Xsession.d
default-display-manager X Xreset.d Xsession.options
fonts xinit Xresources XvMCConfig
rgb.txt xkb Xsession Xwrapper.
I searched and found this
http://linux.koolsolutions.com/2009/04/24/howto-resolve-x-server-video-driver-errorscrashes-in-debian-linux/
I am/was mainly looking for howto restart X.
So should I create an xorg.conf with the parameters given ?
Looking forward for help and advice as to how to proceed.
