 Posted: Wed Dec 13, 2006 1:00 pm Post subject: Can somebody help me with new Nvidia Drivers |
 |
|
i've read all the wikis and many posts here about this, and i finally understand how the nvidia-drivers work...
but i don't understand why my window manager just disappears and i'm left with nothing but the window contents... and the gnome-panel...
please help me understand where i went wrong...
emerged portage's beryl packages... is this complete, correct version?

does anyone see anything wrong here??
i tried running
beryl
beryl-manager
beryl --force-nvidia
beryl --many more options set and unset and combinations
but all the same result... an small message in the console, and i can ctrl+c to get control of my computer back... but no window borders or controls, or desktop icons... i have to type in 'metacity' to get those back.

hey,
i think you should have named this "Can somebody help me with Beryl" because it seems to be a problem with it. If metacity (xorg) works, nvidia-drivers work too. Just my 3 cent. |

compiz doesn't work either, it reacts just the same... so i don't think it's specific to beryl..
is there anything else i should try??
oh hey people who use nvidia-drivers for compositing, can you please post how you start your window manager? what parameters?

Yeah, it's a Beryl problem - Beryl's crashing, so you lose window decorations etc. Looks like your nvidia drivers are working okay though...
Beryl is pertty experimental, so this sort of thing does happen at times.

how can it be a beryl problem?
if it is, do you know how to fix it? here is my error from beryl
| Code: | [1]8808

How is not?
Nvidia drivers are used by X in general, not just beryl. And they work ok. If you had a problem with nvidia drivers you would get screen corruption, crashes, etc... for every single program using opengl, which is not the case.
By the way, beryl is a fork of compiz-quinstorm, I fail to see why both could not share a bug 
Another "by the way". Nvidia-drivers is stable, beryl is not, do you need more info on which is the culprit? 
Said that, try this command line and see what happens:
| Code: |
beryl --force-nvidia --use-cow & emerald

beryl is not fork of compiz-quinstorm as per se. It is compiz-quinstorm. She just changed the name to beryl.

ok i understand... my logic was just that..
beryl worked fine using xgl, perfectly actually. also using newest nvidia-drivers
beryl does not work fine with just nvidia-drivers.
it crashes my system and i have to hard reboot.
i just tried the command you mentioned, and i had to do that... what exactly happens is, all the window borders and controls disappear, the icons on my desktop disappear.. the gnome-panel and open windows remain open, but does not function. i can move my mouse... i can't switch to other vts. i have to push the reboot button.
i would just like to know... how other people have gotten it to run, since so many have said "just use nvidia-drivers, the right xorg.conf and beryl/compiz" but no one ever said they had this problem, so i don't know how to fix it.
all i wanted was for one of those people who say it *does* in fact work.. to post their setup... nvidia-drivers version, beryl version, any needed use flags, xorg.conf, glxinfo, the command(+switches) they use to start beryl, etc.
but no one has been kind enough to share their working configuration

@remix, the working configuration is the one already present in the wiki, you should just need those options in your xorg.conf
| Code: |
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "true"
Option "RenderAccel" "true"
|
In the Section "Devices" in xorg.conf, disable any line speaking about "dri", nvidia does not use any glp'd dri extension so they can only cause trouble. Make also sure your DefaultDepth is at least 24 bits and make also sure the composite extension is loading, along with glx
| Code: |
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
Option "RENDER" "Enable"
EndSection
# and...
Section "ServerLayout"
#Anything you might have on this section...
Option "AIGLX" "false"
EndSection
# and...
Section "Module"
#Anything you might have on this section...
Load "glx"
EndSection
|
Appart from that, there is nothing no one can do, keep in mind that it is beryl which is experimental and unstable software, by definition it just might or might not work, it is not anyone else's nor your own fault, so, relax, try the svn ebuilds and if that does not work, wait a week and try again. After all, it they were supposed to run without a glitch beryl would be in stable. It is still 0.x. |

omg thank you soo much.. i love you man.. you are the greatest and your avatar scares me, but it works!!!!
holy crap it works..!!! did exactly like you wrote, and it just works.... like a charm... faster and more responsive, less laggy than aiglx, aiglx would delay some of my clicks to control things sometimes....
here are the results
using nvidia only
before starting beryl:
| Code: | remix@BFG-c2d ~ $ glxgears
112023 frames in 5.0 seconds = 22403.844 FPS |
starting beryl with beryl --force-nvidia --indirect-rendering dbus settings & emerald --replace
| Code: | Relaunching beryl with __GL_YIELD="NOTHING"
No framebuffer_object support! (only simple blur aviable)
Reloading all options.
remix@BFG-c2d ~ $ glxgears
59652 frames in 5.0 seconds = 11930.394 FPS
63585 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12716.908 FPS
63580 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12715.918 FPS
63504 frames in 5.0 seconds = 12700.798 FPS

i really appreciate all you guys' help =)
