At work I run a Dell Optiplex GX260 with a Dell M992 monitor I installed SimplyMEPIS-32 6.5 beta5. It detected and configured everything automatically, including accelerated video. I used Synaptic to install Beryl. It worked perfectly. So, I have BOTH accelerated video and Beryl on my work station. On my personal Gateway m675prr laptop I must chose between accelerated 3D or Beryl. Beryl won't work with my ATI 9700 chip if I use the fglrx driver. I must use the radeon driver, which doesn't support accelerated video. I'm going with the accelerated video. === GreyGeek Hexadecimal wrote: > True, true. > On a related note, is anyone running the bleeding-edge version of Ubuntu > (Feisty Fawn)?
