[Robert Hurst]

i followed all the steps on the Wiki for Beryl but it won't load
i used the AIGLX method on my Kubuntu unit. it's has a ATI Radeon 9600 Card and about 720mb of system memory.

this is what terminal spits out everytime i run the beryl manager

Re: Beryl won't function

I threw in the towel after fighting Linux drivers for my ATI card, and bought an Nvidia.

However, you have a better Radeon than I did -- it should work well if you can crack the secret formula. Here's some guidance that might help: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_fei...ryl_ati_radeon

Good luck with it!

Re: Beryl won't function

I tried beryl with fglrx (+ Xgl) but not with ati (+ AIGLX) drivers.

Re: Beryl won't function

No I didn't meant what graphic card you're using - I like to know which driver! Because I had problems with AIGLX and the "ati" driver. With "radeon" it worked like a charm!
