Knoppix 5.1.1 on Toshiba P25-S507 Laptop
Hi:
I have Knoippix 5.1.1 DVD with me I dont have the boot option for beryl like Knoppix Desktop=lg3d|kde\gnome or something else.
In KDE when I click beryl I get these errors
XGL absent, checking for NVIDIA Nvdia Absent,
Checking for texture_from_pixmap
texture_pixmap present
beryl: No Composite Extension.
I dont get anything else.
I can see the Beryl manager in GNOME, Does Beryl only works on KDE?
I have P4 2.8GHZ, with 512MB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5200 Graphics CARD.
How do I get Beryl working on both KDE & Gnome.
Thanks,
I have not installed it yet, But is a great improvement over Knoppix 4.0 DVD
Thanks,
AJ

Hi:
I was able to use the Knoppix cheatcode
knoppix desktop=beryl at boot,
I get this message stating,
"No AIGLX extension for your graphics card, sorry no 3D Desktop"
I am using NVIDIA GeForce FXGo5200 Graphics Card. Are there extensions for this card. I am thinking of replacing Knoppix 4.0 on my laptop with 5.1.1 version. Getting Beryl to work would be great, I would not mind if it did'nt.
Thanks

You need to download the Linux NVIDIA drivers from the NVIDIA website...
google for: "Linux NVIDIA Drivers"
Take Care,

I have the latest NVIDIA drivers installed, I still get this message, though the BERYL diamond appears on the task bar.
