<div dir="ltr"><div class=""> Hi all, I finally got around to producing an 0.8.10 release. Here are the details, which are also posted on my <a href="http://blog.northfield.ws">blog</a>.It took a bit of setup and cook time but compiz 0.8.10 tarballs are ready now including addons-experimental plugin package. Anyone who has installed compiz before knows it can be confusing so here, I will focus on installing 0.8.10 using <a title="Compiz 0.8.10 Source Packages" href="http://www.northfield.ws/projects/compiz/releases/0.8.10/" target="_blank">the tarballs</a>. Step 1) – Install Xubuntu 14.10 or your variant of *buntu based Linux distribution with sudo installed. Step 2) – Open a terminal Step 3) – Install git $ sudo apt-get install git Step 4) – Download the build scripts with $ git clone git://<a href="http://northfield.ws/compiz/scripts">northfield.ws/compiz/scripts</a> -b release-0.8.10 Step 5) – Run the INSTALL script $ ./scripts/INSTALL … Step 6) – Start ccsm by typing ccsm in the terminal and verify it runs $ ccsm Step 7) – Enable basic plugins such as Window Decoration, Move Window, Place Window, Resize Window and maybe Wobbly so you know it’s working Step 8) – Start compiz with $ compiz –replace ccp Step 9) – Open another terminal Step 10) – Start a compiz window decorator $ emerald –replace If everything is working, then congratulations! You can add ‘emerald’ (without quotes) to ccsm>Effects>Window Decoration>Command field so emerald starts when compiz does. If not, you can ask in #compiz or #northfield on <a href="http://irc.freenode.net">irc.freenode.net</a> using your IRC client. Enjoy!
