I have just installed alsamixergui version 0.9.0.1.2 and I can see the contents. I notice that it depends on fltk, I have version 1.1.7 of that.

If you cannot upgrade then you may have luck launching alsamixergui like this.

XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 alsamixergui

i also have installed version 1.1.7-2 of libfltk1.1 for alsamixergui 0.9.0rc2-1-9 on my debian sid updated.
trying XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 alsamixergui
doesn't work.
maybe some option in gconf?
i have installed compiz 3.4 from git but also with previous version it doesn't work.

Could be some graphics-driver related problem. What graphics-card and -driver do you use? You could try starting compiz with a combination of these options: --strict-binding --indirect-rendering --use-cow (cow is only for nvidia cards).

i use nvidia geforce 2 mx with last stable driver from nvidia.
i start compiz at boot with this script:
export __GL_YIELD="NOTHING";
compiz --strict-binding --use-cow gconf &
gtk-window-decorator &

i also try to run compiz with other option (--indirect-rendering) but it doesn't work.

NB:is it useful add first line (export...)?

Correct me if I am wrong, but don't you need the "legacy"-drivers for the geforce 2 mx? The export and commandline are ok, (I use the export myself, but I don't see any real difference with it) ...

[porcosuino]

my card is geforce2 mx 400 and it seems to be supported by normal stable driver, only mx Integrated cards are not supported:

also i don't see any difference with export command.

what can i do to solve problem?

thanks.
