Hi all,
I am running Feisty Kubuntu on a Toshiba A135-S2386 notebook. I am trying to
setup Beryl on it. facing some problems... My graphics card is a ATI Radeon
Xpress 200M on a T2080 ( 1.73GHz) Dual core. Is the machine good enough?

Following the documentation, I installed ATI's fglrx driver. Accordingly, I
think I should use Xgl and not AIGLX.
For this I added the line:       Option          "AIGLX"         "false"
in the ServerLayout section of xorg.conf.
Without this, launching beryl would simply stop saying that conpositing is
disabled.

I installed ATI's driver (restricted modules). glxinfo gives "Direct
rendering : Yes"

fglrxinfo output is:
display: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: RADEON XPRESS Series
OpenGL version string: 2.0.6334 (8.34.8)

My xorg.conf is uploaded at : http://pastebin.com/944969

lsmod |grep gl    gives:
fglrx                 540004  11
agpgart                35400  2 fglrx,ati_agp

X -version output:

X Window System Version 7.2.0
Release Date: 22 January 2007
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.2
Build Operating System: Linux Ubuntu
Current Operating System: Linux ZION 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15
07:36:31 UTC 2007 i686
Build Date: 04 April 2007

Also following documentation, I restarted X using Xgl using a script
recommended on many websites.
This script is uploaded at:http://pastebin.com/944990 and

Should I try using AIGLX+mesa instead ?
