Here is a quick start of what I did to get beryl on my system:
# ADD TO SOURCES LIST: # $ sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list</pre> # Add lines: # deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/ edgy main # deb-src http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org edgy main # For the GPG key (remove the spaces between # 'root @ lupine.me.uk.gpg', this is needed # to post to blog): # $ wget http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/root@lupine.me.uk.gpg -O - | sudo apt-key add - # Update your sources listing. # $ sudo aptitude update # Enable AIGLX: # $ sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf # Under Section "Module", make sure that the following lines # are included: # Load "dri" Load "dbe" Load "glx" # Under Section "Device" add the following: # Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" # Add following to bottom of file if not present: # Section "DRI" Mode 0666 EndSection Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Enable" EndSection # Restart the xserver by either logging out and into your desktop, # or restarting the managing package, in this case it is kdm for my # KDE desktop. # $ sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart # Install Beryl and its themes # $ sudo aptitude install beryl emerald-themes # Starting Beryl # $ beryl-manager # Enjoy the show by opening a few windows, move them around # and for some real fun try rotating your desktop cube as fast # as you can hit: # CTRL+ALT+RIGHT-ARROW
I was just tickled pink and happier than a pig in shit with this stuff! ;-)
