First, let me say that I'm very happy to see that Kanotix is back. It's been missed greatly.
I just downloaded and installed 2007 RC6. Almost everything I've looked at so far seems to be working as it should. Congratulations Kano!!
But of course, there is a problem. It may be the video card, beryl, or maybe it's just an operator malfunction. Unsally I suspect the latter because I missed something I shouldn't have. Nevertheless, I need help.
I installed the nvidia driver (Nvidia 7600gs video card) using the Kanotix kde control module. After logging out and later rebooting I could not get select Beryl as the window manager. Kwin is the only choice the Beryl manager will let me have. What have I done wrong?
Guidance will be greatly appreciated.

I guess the tool accidently started it with -c option, as I reversed the meaning Composite might be off. Login to vt1 (ctrl-alt-f1) and run:
update-scripts-kanotix.sh
install-nvidia-debian.sh
That way you will always get latest drivers - I guess they update it soon. Also you can even install nvidia in live mode using
nvidia
cheatcode (fglrx would be for ati cards). |

Thanks Kano!!! You can mark this one as solved.
I now have a cube which turns, gets transparent when I want it to , and does all that other stuff which makes Beryl such great eye candy.
Hopefully compiz-fusion will make all that eye candy even better (eventually). |
