A friend of mine was kind enough to gift me an nvidia Geforce 5200 (128 megs) for my old athlon 1000 system. I'm currently running etch.
Following the beryl wiki, I got the packages from their repository, installed them, and beryl sort of works. By sort of, I can get some of the screen effects to work (such as alt-tab, shadings and so forth) but beryl-manager doesn't like my setup for some reason. I get errors like: beryl: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32 beryl: Couldn't bind redirected window 0xe001d2 to texture beryl: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32 beryl: Couldn't bind redirected window 0xe001d2 to texture beryl: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32 beryl: Couldn't bind redirected window 0xe001d2 to texture beryl: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32 beryl: Couldn't bind redirected window 0xe001d2 to texture beryl: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32 when switching apps, printed on the xterminal the beryl-nanager program was called from. Additionally there are no window decorations on the windows. There's a strange error about dbus-launch failing "This should not happen" I tried googleing for the exact error text, and only got one hit which was not very relevant - it was for arch linux. If someone can peek at my /etc/X11/xorg.conf and see if I missed something, please do so :). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David E.
