Hi

For the life of me, I cannot get this working!!! I have a Radeon 9700 Pro and keep getting this message:

sam@sam:~$ beryl
XGL Absent, checking for NVIDIA
Nvidia Absent, checking for texture_from_pixmap
texture_from_pixmap Present
beryl: No composite extension

I have installed XGL but for some reason it just will not work

Please help

Thanks
 
Ok it be working now... however, it seems to cane my system slightly (i.e. Swiftfox is a little slow to use).. I am running an Athlon XP 1900+, Rad 9700Pro and 512MB RAM.... Should it be 100% slick?

Thanks

Hmm, could be 512MB of ram is slowing it down - hard to say without looking at stats. I use AIGLX instead of XGL as well. Mines a duel core 1.6, 1gb ram and intel integrated gfx and it runs it fine.
