Thumbs down Installing Beryl On An Ubuntu Feisty Fawn Desktop With An ATI Radeon Graphic Card
Sorry direct rendering doesn't work as was explained in Step 1 of the How-To. I've followed the first step to a TEE. I had it working in Edgy Eft no problem. When I upgraded to Feisty, direct rendering broke (surprise surprise).

I use a Radeon 9000. Here's my xorg.conf

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 xorg.conf(5) manual page.
# (Type "man 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.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

As far as I can see, the line
Code:
Load "dbe"
is missing in the Module section.

I added that line in the Module section, but it made no difference when I restarted X.

Here's the current config:

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 xorg.conf(5) manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#

# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

It looks as though it's picking up the Radeon 9000 okay... ?

Looks ok. Are you sure that you followed the tutorial as close as possible? Maybe you made a typo somewhere?

I basically copied/pasted everything additional you need into xorg.conf that was in the tutorial. There has to be something either myself or the tutorial is missing. Is there a way to contact the author(s) of the tutorial? Maybe it's possible they left something out?

If indeed it's a typo on my end, shouldn't there be some sort of log I could check to see why hardware acceleration isn't working?

OOps! Sorry I didn't realize you were the author Falko. It's been a long week. At any rate there has to be something logged somewhere... do you have anything like this in Dmesg...?

Code:
$ dmesg | grep -i error

That's strange. Are you sure the correct driver is installed (and fglrx is not installed)?

Code:
$ sudo modprobe -r fglrx
Password:
$ glxinfo | grep vendor
server glx vendor string: SGI
client glx vendor string: SGI
OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org
$ lsmod | grep radeon
radeon                124576  0 
drm                    81044  1 radeon
Pretty sure. Actually I've had such awful experiences using fglrx that pretty much the first thing I do on a new system with a Radeon is remove that driver and install the open source ATI driver.
