<0> Hey, is anybody using Beryl on nvidia 1.0-9746?
<0> Is anybody even active?
<1> hei
<0> Hi
<1> nah. I have intel, and I'm not using beryl
<0> >_<
<0> Well, maybe you can help anyway
<0> Beryl is being an ***hole because I can't completely remove the package
<0> thus reverting all my settings
<0> I've gone through synaptic and done a complete removal
<0> deleted the repository
<1> you have installed something from source?
<0> and purged the packages
<0> No, it was a .deb, precompiled
<1> ok ;)
<0> How would I ensure a complete removal of this package?
<1> dpkg -l tells what packages are installed. you can search by piping to grep
<0> I know which packages are installed
<0> That isn't an issue
<1> dpkg -r --purge packagename
<0> what's the difference between dpkg -r and aptitude?
<1> aptitude is just an interface to dpkg
<1> same with synaptic and apt
<1> deselect as well
<1> when you install a package with synaptic, it's actually running dpkg -i packagename
<0> Ahh, okay
<0> dpkg: conflicting actions -P (--purge) and -r (--remove)
<1> if you try to purge first, and then remove?
<0> vord@arsenic:~$ dpkg -r --purge
<0> that's what I tried
<0> should I do dpkg -p --remove?
<1> did you type the packagename as well?
<0> yeah
<0> I just removed them, because it was a long list
<0> vord@arsenic:~$ dpkg -r --purge beryl beryl-core beryl-manager beryl-plugins beryl-plugins- beryl-settings
<0> was the exact command
<1> dpkg --purge eryl beryl-core beryl-manager beryl-plugins beryl-plugins- beryl-settings
<2> http://www.dell.com/content/topics/segtopic.aspx/e510_nseries?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs
<1> dpkg --remove beryl beryl-core beryl-manager beryl-plugins beryl-plugins- beryl-settings
<1> how did that go?
<0> ****ty, one sec
<1> Ryan`: you are going to by a brand new computer?
<1> buy
<2> probably within a year.
<2> but, something bigger than that
<1> Ryan`: ok. I'm going to buy more RAM and a monitor tomorrow :)
<2> that was just to show that at least one manufacturer is offering WIndows-Free pcs
<0> Mellar, it's telling me beryl isn't even installed -.-
<1> Vord: dpkg -l | grep beryl
<1> if beryl is removed, then the command shouldn't return anything
<0> It returns the list of every package I put in to be purged >_<
<0> Which is why this is so ****ed up
<1> apt-get remove --purge beryl beryl-core beryl-manager beryl-plugins beryl-plugins- beryl-settings
<1> still no luck?
<0> One sec, trying something
<1> I mistyped beryl in the purging command
<1> I typed eryl
<0> Okay, turns out the packages I was trying to remove were in fact already purged, the ones I was looking at were some that were missed
<0> dpkg -l | grep beryl returns nothing now
<0> Gonna try reinstalling
<0> I'm 5 minutes away from just giving up on beryl entirely
<2> Vord: what kind of card do you have?
<0> 7900GS
<2> what happens when you try to start beryl?
<0> Splash screen comes up, no window borders
<2> erm
<2> check your xorg.conf
<0> when I manually start beryl-manager
<0> (emerald:9002): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine"
<2> check and see if you defaultdepth is set to 24
<0> It is
<0> Because beryl worked before I changed my drivers 9746
<0> to*
<2> is AddARGBVisuals set to True?
<0> Let me check
<2> AddARGBGLXVisuals is more like it
<2> but that might be for nVidia cards.
<0> I have an nvidia card
<2> ah ok
<2> check to make sure AddARGBGLXVisuals is set to True then
<0> and AddARGBGLXVisuals isn't even in my xorg
<2> Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
<2> nothing like that?
<2> you have to enable it.
<0> There is no entry whatsoever for AddARGBGLXVisuals
<0> What's it under?
<2> do this
<2> sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals
<0> question: What's this leading up to, and what does it have to do with Beryl, ***uming that it was working before a driver upgrade?
<2> you DO have beryl installed, right?
<0> ****ing, I don't even know right now
<2> changed drivers, changed settings
<2> well here
<0> I've removed and reinstalled the **** so many times -.-
<2> http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/nVIDIA
<2> thats a great, and simple howto to use with nvidia cards
<2> in fact, it does most everything for you.
<0> Alright
<0> Let me go ahead and purge beryl
<2> Vord: just so you know, I had the same problem with Beryl when I first installed it, no window decorations, I fixed it when I enabled the AddARGBGLXVisuals and set the default depth to 24
<3> I just ran emerald :)
<0> tiaz, okay?
<3> Vord: I meant in response to the "no window decorations" thing
<3> run beryl, run emerald
<2> tiaz: whats what I did also, but I still had no decorations until I enabled Addblahblah and set the defaultdepth to 24
<0> (emerald:9534): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine"
<3> install emerald-themes?
<0> Done so several times over
<0> Ryan`, when I dpkg -l | grep beryl, is there a way for me to remove all of the packages without individually naming each one
<0> dpkg -p | grep beryl, maybe?
<2> I wouldn't bother with uninstalling any packages
<2> if you follow that howto, it will overwrite everything necessary
<0> I'm just giving up on beryl altogether -.-, I followed the howto and it didn't work
<2> ok then
<2> try talking to the people in #beryl on freenode.
<2> eh
<2> Vord: did you restart X?
<0> No, one sec though
<2> ctrl+alt+backspace
<0> I know
<0> I still get this output when starting beryl-manager
<0> (beryl-manager:10715): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine",
<0> and I know for a fact
<0> if I'm getting that output
<0> Beryl is not going to work correctly
<2> try restarting X dude
<0> it..worked
<2> Beryl's working?
<0> somehow...
<0> Yeah :D
<2> with window decorations?
<0> With window decorations
<0> Works flawlessly
<2> <0> and I know for a fact
<2> <0> if I'm getting that output
<2> <0> Beryl is not going to work correctly
<0> :P
<0> At least I didn't make any kind of monetary bet, eh?
<2> It goes to show you, if you listen to someone that has experience with the problem you might be having, its worth listening to what they tell you eh?
<0> Haha, you've gotta understand my skepticism, I was under the impression that I had followed the guide and it still hadn't worked, I missed where it said to restart X
<0> But regardless
<0> Thank you, thank you very much
<2> it doesn't tell you to restart x.
<2> well maybe it does
<0> Yeah
<0> It does
<3> well you don't have to unless you don't already have xgl
<2> alright
<3> if you're just installing beryl and already have xgl, you can just run beryl/emerald
