Install ALL Compiz plugins?

[steigerjb]

Is there a way I can install ALL the Compiz plugins (Main, extra, unsupported, experimental,...) all at once?

Though, I don't even know how to do one at a time.

I already did


sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager

course that's not nearly all the plugins.

Steigerjb wants ALL the eyecandy! :lolflag:

[NuclearStr1der]

Take a look here:

https://launchpad.net/~compiz/+archive/ppa

That should have everything you need ;)
Just add it to your software sources, etc.

what do I do?

[oktapod]

System -> Preferences -> CompizConfig Settings Manager

or

type ccsm in terminal.

[NuclearStr1der]

what do I do?

Go the link I gave you earlier.

Click on "Technical Details about this PPA",
and then click on "Read about installing"

That should help you - it's really not that hard to find.

[MelDJ]

add the compiz repo from the site NuclearStr1der gave

then install this package: compiz-fusion-plugins-unsupported

That didn't get me all, only gave me a few more.

[blazemore]

Right what if I've written a compiz plugin but have never released it?
Do you expect to be able to get that as well??

[NuclearStr1der]

Yeah - now you have ALL of them...

A lot are included by default.

[Tholley]

Check out these sites.

What's your plugin do? I might want it ;)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everyone, I know how to get Compiz and set it up. That is not what I am looking for in this thread. I am looking to get those extra plugins listed up there.

[blazemore]

I didn't really write a plugin, I was just saying you can't expect to get ALL of them, some of them will be in some random obscure branch.

As suggested,here:
http://forum.compiz.org/showthread.php?p=68054

It works in Karmic also.

I don't know if that will work cuz I tried the script from this guy: http://mathpages.blogspot.com/2008/06/tips-for-using-compiz-fusion-on-ubuntu.html and it didn't work

[blazemore]

When you tried out the script, did you install all the required packages beforehand?

[Locutus_of_Borg]

here are all of them:
http://gitweb.compiz-fusion.org/


install them by the usual compilation methods
./configure
make
sudo make install

[steigerjb]

sudo make install

can you do some examples please, I don't know how to compile

[realzippy]

Install the packages required for compiling plugins:

sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion-bcop compiz-dev compizconfig-settings-manager build-essential libtool libglu1-mesa-dev libxss-dev libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev git-core


------------------------------------------------------
creating directory "compiz" in home folder:

mkdir -p ~/compiz/

example for screensaver plugin:

cd ~/compiz


git clone git://anongit.compiz-fusion.org/users/pafy/screensaver


cd ~/compiz/screensaver

Now compiling :


make clean

make

make install


Restart compiz and ccsm,new plugins can be found in ccsm

Install the packages required for compiling plugins:
creating directory "compiz" in home folder:

mkdir -p ~/compiz/

what would be the codes to put the plugins in a compiz folder in my downloads folder?

[realzippy]

mkdir -p ~/compiz/
is the same as:
mkdir -p /home/youruserbutdontknowyourusername/compiz/

So when your Downloadfolder is (as default in Karmic):
/home/youruserbutdontknowyourusername/Downloads/
same as
~/Downloads/
so to create a folder named compiz in Downloads:

mkdir -p ~/Downloads/compiz/

mind that if you do so cd ~/compiz has to be: cd ~/Downloads/compiz and cd ~/compiz/screensaver -you go tit!: cd ~/Downloads/compiz/screensaver


But why not using nautilus and create new folder by right click????????

[steigerjb]

mkdir -p ~/compiz/

Can you redo the codes again???...put them in the downloads folder...i tried you post (#21) but it didn't work.

[realzippy]

Have you run

sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion-bcop compiz-dev compizconfig-settings-manager build-essential libtool libglu1-mesa-dev libxss-dev libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev git-core


before?

I would still like the following plugins:

Aquarium
Stackswitch
Rubix cube
Wiimote (not sure offical name)
Freescale

Other: We all ready know Compiz can do the snap feature like Windows 7! (psh Win7, Ubuntu had it first!) My question is, can Ubuntu do the other 2 features too?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xO_7sbFEJrE (Peek & shake)

Sweet!!!!!! Been looking for these I don't really no all the cool places to look great :D

[PenguinInside]

Wait, not all the plugins are compatible with each other, right?

[Throbbing Gristle]

There are some limitations. Cannot run everything at once. Compiz usually give a prompt saying to disable something that I have seen.

[pocketman]

Sorry to dredge up such an old post, but I was just looking for the same thing, and this post popped up in my search.

If you're on Ubuntu 10.10, it's even easier. Just go to synaptic (system -> administrtion -> synaptic pkg mgr), search for compiz, click on 'compiz-fusion-plugins-extra', and hit apply.

It's that easy, now you have all the plugins. :)

Don't think so, maybe compiz-fusion-plugins-unsupported but that would remove compiz-fusion-plugins-extra. The extra package doesn't have, for example, the screensaver plugin and cube Atlantis.
