Since you won't be using the nvidia driver, you don't need compat_5x enabled. I didn't need to enable any options in the Screen section with my i845, but I did need options composite and RENDER enabled in the Extensions section. I know this thread is a little dated, but this is the link I used as a reference while trying to get beryl working with kde on my laptop... I'm running KDE 3.5.7 on xorg 7.2 on FreeBSD 6.2-Stable. dmesg yields: drm0: ATI Radeon LW RV200 Mobility 7500 M7 port 0x3000-0x30ff mem 0x4800-0x4fff,0x4030-0x4030 irq 11 at device 0.0 on pci1 info: [drm] AGP at 0x6000 256MB info: [drm] Initialized radeon 1.25.0 20060524 The only difference is that I'm trying to get it to work with the KDE desktop rather than the Gnome desktop. I've followed the steps in the link. When I try to load Beryl however, I get a light-grey screen. I can rotate the cube, but it's all grey (except for the gems at the top and bottom). I'm perplexed, but I don't think it's a problem with Beryl (because of the rotation and the gems displaying at top and bottom of the cube)... Is there a trick to get beryl to work with KDE on FreeBSD? Thanks, Mike You should post this question on PC-BSD forums since PC-BSD 1.4 uses Beryl as a default window manager on the KDE desktop. Installing PC-BSD would be also the quickest and easiest way to get fully functional KDE with Beryl as a window manager.

Anyone know if there are tutorials to install Beryl ? I'm using my best friend who is Google but without success. Thank you in advance :) It is not officially supported yet, but there is an experimental port.
