Beryl - missing buttons

[kurisu]

Hi folks,

I know this is a familiar story, but I couldn't get the standard...

cookie="$(xauth -i nextract - :0 | cut -d ' ' -f 9)"
xauth -i add :1 . "$cookie"

...to give me back my shutdown/restart/etc buttons. Sometimes I don't get any buttons, just a greyed screen! Can anyone help?

Yours dependently,
K

Re: Beryl - missing buttons

I never got shutdown buttons on Beryl. Thats why i switched to Fusion. Taken from Beryl-Project i think your startxgl is supposed to look something like this:

#!/bin/sh
Xgl :1 -fullscreen -ac -accel xvbuffer -accel glxbuffer &
DISPLAY=:1
cookie="$(xauth -i nextract - :0 | cut -d ' ' -f 9)"
xauth -i add :1 . "$cookie"
exec dbus-launch --exec startkde

It ever worked for me though.Try here: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/I...eisty_with_XGL

Re: Beryl - missing buttons

Yeah mine looks just like that. Is there a painless way to install Fusion on Kubuntu running the proprietary (fglrx) ATI driver? Beryl install was a bit convoluted and still doesn't work properly

Re: Beryl - missing buttons

Ive only installed fusion on nvidia cards so far so i dont have any idea on ati cards. But im sure if you look around , you should find a simple tutorial.
