Has anyone got Beryl working with Radeon 9550 under Debian Etch?


Did anyone managed to run Beryl on Radeon 9550 under Debian Etch?
If yes, please post your xorg.conf file and write which drivers are you using?

At the moment I'm using the newest(released on 19 July 07) ATI drivers
Code:
ati-driver-installer-8.39.4-x86.x86_64.run
My xorg.conf looks very messy:
Code:
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

Add the lines to your xorg.conf that it has on that site. That's the one I've followed and it's always worked out for me.
