Debian HOW-TO: AIGLX + Beryl
Debian HOW-TO: NVIDIA drivers
Troubleshooting
1. Only one face of the cube works properly
solution
Just uncheck:
Beryl Manager->General Options->Desktop Background->Desktop Manager Supports Viewports
2. Black Windows
solution
Set "Rendering Path" to "Copy" in Beryl Manager->Advanced Beryl Options
Set "Rendering Platform" to "Force AIGLX" in Beryl Manager->Advanced Beryl Options
Leave other advanced options to "automatic"
3. Some Java applications (with Java GUI) are not correctly displayed
Solution
Some Java applications (with Java GUI) are not correctly displayed with Beryl running;
only an empty window is visualized. A workaround is to append:
export AWT_TOOLKIT="MToolkit"
in your .bashrc (for single user) or /etc/profile (for all users).
