This Thread will be updated daily to keep you up to date
Now here's my beryl-install-repair script.
it can be used for quick installation or repair installation of beryl and emerald.
so give it a try 
changes and suggestions are always welcome

This script is only tested with NVIDIA graphics adapters not ATI

I'm using the same driver as you and I have direct rendering. You may not have the needed lines in xorg.conf.
This is what I do with every distro to get my xorg.conf right.
Go to init 3 (type init 3 in a terminal) then I type each of these lines one at a time .
Code:
nvidia-xconfig --composite
nvidia-xconfig --allow-glx-with-composite
nvidia-xconfig --render-accel
nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals

| Do we really need a script for beryl?? If you use Kano's scripts for graphics drivers, it adds options for aiglx, then you just run 'beryl-manager' in X. |

Do we really need scripts period ?
Scripts help in many ways (some don't like scripts period)
If someone wants to write a script on beryl or taking a piss or whatever, let them, just don't use it or ask why, different strokes for different folks. Not to be mean or rude but why question someones work or someones way of making a repair or install of beryl (or any app) easier for people. Last time I looked at kano's script, it does not repair beryl. my 2 cents
EDIT: how does it add options for aiglx which is built into xorg ? |

i have no problems since i use this options on graphics driver install:
Code:
install-nvidia-debian.sh -cfv 9631
the white screen can be fixed by this script.
just remove the settings and then install fresh beryl. it worked fine for me when i had this problem.
@gmx99
1)install nvidia driver with the options mentioned here before
2)use script to remove settings.
3)install beryl with the script, this will install fresh settings.
4)when you see the small beryl icon in system tray, right click on it.
5)set all 'advanced options for beryl' to AUTOMATIC.
that should solve your white screen
@damentz: i wrote this script to help people with their problems and also for the beginners, to have an easy entry to beryl.
If you don't like it, just don't use it.
it's your choice |

I don't find my mistake...perhaps you can find my mistake in the xorg.conf?
Thanks for help

What my xorg looks like, if you want to use to compare
Code:
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.

Maybe you should try it like that:
Code:
su
init 3
chmod +x berylscript.sh
berylscript.sh
#Remove settings and re-install beryl with the script.
init 5
Then type beryl-settings, not beryl-manager, into console.
Have a look at the png and svg plugins.
Make sure you have one of them active.
Otherwise i'll post my settings file here, which is proved to work very well.
EDIT:The problem is compiz, just remove whole compiz stuff with:
Code:
apt-get remove --purge compiz*
That sure will work cause you don't need compiz to run beryl. |
