I'm using the new nVidia drivers with Beryl and it works like a charm. “Funny, I’ve been struggling with getting fglrx and composite to live nicely together in linux for compiz effects for months.

I never thought I'd see that glorious string of letters again in my life! Oh, I remember taking some wire, folding it and pseudocrimping the tips so I could put them into a parallel cable and then taking the 5 volts from my PS/2 port for a Sega Genesis controller so that I could get a more authentic emulator and Doom experience! Note: I didn't have a nice soldering iron or any solder when I did this! Brings back some nice memories! :D Glad to see someone is still using that wonderful piece of software! PPjoy?

Funny, I’ve been struggling with getting fglrx and composite to live nicely together in linux for compiz effects for months. And also struggled to enable QE/CI in osx86 with my x850xt, while my windows machine is gaming like a mofo.

Stupid rant…
