I have been all over the net trying to get compiz running on my system. Ive seen many youtube videos of people with success using PCBSD and KDE4.

I have tried installing from the ports "/usr/ports/x11-wm/compiz-fusion" make install clean
It compiles up to a point and then these errors...

*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/libwnck.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11-wm/compiz.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11-wm/libcompizconfig.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11-wm/compiz-fusion.


I also get a ...
"configure: error: Your intltool is too old. You need intltool 0.40.0 or later."

...error, where do I find a newer version?

I am running PCBSD 7.02 with NVIDIA 180.29 drivers installed from their website. Everything is running flawless. PCBSD is impressive, just need my compiz, I feel naked lol.

Thanks

ok I have got past the last error and now have a new one...

checking for COMPIZ... configure: error: Package requirements (x11-xcb xcomposite xfixes xdamage xrandr xinerama ice smlibxml-2.0 libxslt libstartup-notification-1.0 >=0.7) were not met:

gnome-config: not found
No package 'x11-xcb' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables COMPIZ_CFLAGS
and COMPIZ_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.


Does anyone have a tried and true way for installing compiz on KDE?

you may need to install (or upgrade) the libxcb or xcb ports.

I have a similar problem, running kde 4.1 on pcbsd7, can't start compiz because seems libxcb.so.1 is not installed. I tryed to fix upgrading the ports and upgrading libxcb to libxcb-1.2 but nothing changed. Still missing libxcb.so.1
Anybody knows how can I get this library?
