    Wobbly NOP description

     

    Wobbly NOP is a modified version of the small, light and fast LiveCD operating system Puppy Linux 3.01.

    Wobbly NOP is a modified version of the small, light and fast LiveCD operating system Puppy Linux 3.01. Wobbly NOP includes the Compiz-Fusion compositing 3D window manager, for those "wobbly" effects. :-D All in just 130mb!

    It's based on Puppy NOP (which uses the Xfce desktop environment (4.4.1) and the Opera web browser/internet suite. NOP itself is release-quality, but Wobbly NOP is still being worked on. This is a test release release for people willing to experiment and give feedback.

    This is basically what has been added:
    · wow's october compiz test dotpet
    · The CCSM (settings manager) and Python.
    · Xorg7.2 DRI modules
    · Xorg7.2 OpenGL
    · Some bugfixes for ATI setups and Compiz itself.
    · Proprietary nVidia drivers (x3) (cos OSS drivers don't do AIGLX)
    · My own Compiz-Fusion wizard script (/usr/sbin/cfwizard)

    The cfwizard script is run at the end of xorgwizard and sets up the appropriate configuration (xorg.conf, modules, drivers, etc). It currently relies on simple text-pattern matching, I'm really not sure how many cards this method will successfully detect. Perhaps there's a better way?

    At the moment Compiz is started from the beginning of .xinitrc This is a compromise as on my machine it causes the taskbar to be hidden until the first mouse click. When I started Compiz from a later script (startxfce maybe) there would be an ugly moment of no window decorations.

    Currently wNOP has been tested as working on these graphics cards:

    Stable:

    · ATI Radeon 9550
    · ATI Mobility Radeon 9000
    · ATI Radeon Mobility 7500
    · nVidia GeForce 5200
    · Nvidia Geforce MX 440
    · Nvidia 6150se
    · Probably all nVidias

    Possibly unstable:

    · geforce 2 mx 400
    · nvidia GeForce 6200
