I am using beryl from the Extras repository.
It was working up until the 0.2 betas with my current drivers and xconfig.
Now it just segfaults on launch. (After displaying a bunch of tests that all
pass.)
I am using the commercial NVIDIA driver version 9631. (The last one
supporting my chipset.)
Any ideas? Since it is a laptop, I cannot just "replace the card" and the nv
open source driver will not run Beryl at all.
Is this a known problem? Is there a fix?
I did a bit more research on this (which I should have done before
posting).
Yes there is a problem. It is not just Fedora. It is a bug in Beryl and
is fixed in later code.
http://forum.beryl-project.org/viewtopic.php?t=2564
has info on the problem and the point where it gets fixed.
Any possibility of an update?
