Hi
I've a laptop with a nvidia GForce4 420go with the 9631-r1 driver (97* are not supported).
GLX, and later beryl seems to work. But emerald freezes when called from cmdline, and no output. And it never started.
I just tried all configurations i saw in previous forum posts about beryl and emerald.
If i change the rendering path to copy, this will result on graphics garbling.
This problems comes already from version 1.4, and both emerald and beryl are version 2.1 compiled with emerald USE flag
Xorg configuration:

i believe u have to use at least 24bit
instead of
Here is mine for refference - beware, it uses 1600x1200@100Hz=130kHz - so don't copy blindly !!
DRI extension should/could be removed
cheers, dR0PS

Well, that's it. Emerald only works with >=24 bits of color.
This solves my problem. I also removed DRI extension thus it seems I don't need it.
Emerald and Beryl are working.
Many thanks and regards |
