就如 Seth Nickell 在他上一篇 blog 上承诺的，他已经放出许多体验快照和视频，以及一步一步的试验步骤。

Getting Luminocity
It took me about half an hour of work (and some compiling time) to get Luminocity running using jhbuild. Eventually we'll add a jhbuild target for compiling Luminocity. Luminocity is not intended to turn into a real world window/compositing manager. Instead, its a technology test bed. We're trying stuff out in Luminocity and will be rolling them into Metacity (and hence stock GNOME) as they mature. Don't expect Luminocity to have the frills and smarts you'd expect from a normal window manager. You'll need hardware GL acceleration enabled to have wobbly windows work, though you can try the other bits of luminocity without it. Emebedded Intel video cards (which have open source DRI drivers) will work just fine. ATI and NVidia cards, of course, work even better.
1. Run jhbuild build xserver. This will build the freedesktop.org xserver, including the damage and composite extensions, and the Xephyr/Xfake nested X servers. If you don't have jhbuild you can get it from Gnome CVS module "jhbuild".
2. Apply a small patch that evilly hacks around some issues with DAMAGE in the X server
3. Checkout module "luminocity" from Gnome CVS.
4. With the jhbuild buildroot at the start of your PATH (so you get autoconf, automake, etc from the buildroot): from the luminocity directory run ./autogen.sh --prefix=PATH_TO_JHBUILD_TREE, then make and finally make install. Alternatively, see README.jhbuild for instructions on adding a "luminocity" target to jhbuild (eventually we should just include this in jhbuild).
5. Now to get things running. Luminocity grabs windows from an existing X server and renders them in its own GL context. This technique is not intended to be particularly efficient, but it works surprisingly well for a development testbed. We will use "Xfake" as the X server. Xfake doesn't display windows sent to it, so they only get rendered on screen once (by luminocity). Xfake is included in the "xserver" module built by jhbuild above. If you are running at 1024x768, run jhbuild run Xfake -screen 1024x3072x32 :1 to start Xfake on display :1. Basically, use XRESULTIONx(4*YRESOLUTION)x32. This is because Luminocity starts with 4 workspaces by default.
6. Now lets display something on the Xfake display. From a new window, set DISPLAY to ":1" (e.g. export DISPLAY=:1). Then run any program you want to use, e.g. gnome-terminal. Of course, you won't see a window since its displaying to the fake X server.
7. Start Luminocity with luminocity -f :1 PATH_TO_BACKGROUND_IMAGE. Including a background image is important since a bug in the wobbly windows rendering code causes major performance problems when the background is missing. Luminocity should now be running fullscreen, display whatever application you launched earlier (in this example, gnome-terminal). Another bug in wobbly windows increases the animation timeout every time you open a new window. This means that for every window you open, wobbly windows get jerkier and jerkier. Oops! Don't worry, this is a silly bug and not a sign that we're overloading your card or something.
8. Sometimes windows start with their titlebars off screen. To move them onto the screen, you'll need to drag them while holding down the super key (if you have a Windows key on your keyboard, try this). You may have to remap your super key to make this work, esp. if you have no Windows key, e.g. xmodmap -e 'keycode 95=Super_L', which will then allow you to move windows by dragging them while holding down the F11 key.
If you need help, or you're interested in contributing to Luminocity etc, you can probably find some knowledgable people on #fedora-desktop on irc.gnome.org (naturally, you don't have to be running fedora ;-) Eventually we'll probably have a channel for this. People to look out for are: "owen", "ssp" (Soeren Sandmann), "krh" (Kristian Ho/gsberg) and "seth" (Though I'm just a user, *grin*). |
