XGL crashes to login.

[f1rem0th]

I'm trying to install beryl on my ati x1300 graphics card, but beryl's wiki is down so i cant follow their guide.


I'm following this one,

#!/bin/sh
Xgl :1 -fullscreen -ac -accel xv:pbuffer -accel glx:pbuffer &
sleep 4
DISPLAY=:1
cookie="$(xauth -i nextract - :0 | cut -d ' ' -f 9)"
xauth -i add :1 . "$cookie"
exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session

to

#!/bin/sh
Xgl :1 -fullscreen -ac -accel xv:pbuffer -accel glx:pbuffer &
sleep 4
DISPLAY=:1
cookie="$(xauth -i nextract - :0 | cut -d ' ' -f 9)"
xauth -i add :1 . "$cookie"
exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session kde-session

i try to start an XGL session, and i get a crosshatched screen, with a X for a mouse pointer, and then it crashes to login.


Can someone point me to a tutorial to get XGL working please?

Hopefully you can use the XGL part.

And here you can find tar ball from "Install Beryl on Ubuntu Feisty with XGL" page.
