compiz - OpenGL window and compositing manager
compiz [options] [plugins]
compiz is a compositing window-manager using OpenGL for
rendering.
- --display
DISPLAY
- Manage the display called DISPLAY instead of the name obtained from
the $DISPLAY environment variable.
- --bg-image
IMAGE
- Use IMAGE as background image.
- --refresh-rate
RATE
- Set the default refresh rate.
- --fast-filter
- Use a fast texture filter.
- --indirect-rendering
- Force an indirect rendering context. Use this when running compiz on
AIGLX.
- --loose-binding
- Disable strict binding of textures. This may improve performance in some
situations (running on XGL). As opposed to strict binding, however, this
isn't guaranteed to work. Use with care.
- --replace
- Replace any existing window managers on the given X display.
- --sm-disable
- Disable the session management.
- --sm-client-id
ID
- Use the given ID as the client ID for session management.
- --no-detection
- Disable output screen detection.
- --no-fbo
- Disable the use of FBOs (frame buffer objects). This can be useful to work
around drivers with broken FBO implementations.
- --ignore-desktop-hints
- Do not use desktop hints (number of desktops, current desktop) as left by
the previous window manager.
- --only-current-screen
- Manage only the screen defined by $DISPLAY (or given by the
--display option) and leave all other screens alone.
- --use-root-window
- Use the root window instead of the composite overlay window for
drawing.
- --version
- Show the compiz version string.
- --help
- Show a summary of the command-line options.
