[07:32] <mlankhorst> Laney: ugh, I dreamed that you told me to add m nick to /hilight and respond more often about work stuff when I'm not working o.O
[08:19] <Laney> mlankhorst: O_O
[08:19] <Laney> am I that bad? :P
[08:20] <mlankhorst> I have no idea why I dreamt that
[08:22] <Laney> i'm flattered
[08:23] <mlankhorst> but that point I realized it was a dream
[09:24] <Mirv> doomlord: it's using upstream compiz (https://code.launchpad.net/compiz) but has a couple of small distro patches. the only relevant patch seems to be the one that modifies several default settings from upstream defaults.
[09:25] <Mirv> ie modifying the xml files of various plugins
[10:00] <doomlord> hi
[10:00] <doomlord> some time ago i tried to compile compiz from their own git repository and it broke my ssytem when it installed - so i figured it would be better to get it from launchpad
[10:01] <doomlord> i've tried some guides, but as yet haven't managed to compile it (i've got something else smaller & similar, 'skippy-xd',that i can use to try something similar to what i have in mind, but compiz-scale+expo would be best by far, i like the unity desktop generally )
[14:35] <robru> doomlord, have you tried 'apt-get source compiz' ? that'll bring in all the distropatches so that you can compile it exactly as it exists in distro.
[15:26] <doomlord> "apt-get source".. no i haven't only "build-deps", thanks i'll try. at the momnet i'm still hacking away at the vastly simpler "skippy-xd" to get the functionality I want in a lightweight setup & 2d fallback.
