Beryl Error: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b

Xswitch · 12-29-2006, 08:41 AM

When I launch beryl-manager, I get the following error message:

3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b

Beryl was working fine up until recently. Do not know what caused it to brake. The Beryl icon shows in the taskbar, but nothing else works. Here is my xorg.conf:

What do I need to do to fix?

streeturchine · 01-02-2007, 07:28 AM

this is a bug that is happening across several differant distro's not just ubuntu.
see Fd.o bug 6689.

the visual blabla warning should not cause any problems, and if you have some problems it's not because of that (or should not)be.

The problem with R200-cards (Radeon 8500 - 9200) should be fixed in Kernel 2.6.19, which is currently in Ubuntu 7.04 development branch.

For R300/R400-cards (9500 - X850), a similar problem exists (again, for some cards), and is fixed in MESA/DRM GIT development tree (yesterday): http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=mesa/drm.git;a=summary - ie. hopefully it will get to kernel 2.6.20.

As for the other warning (Visual... not supported), that is completely harmless but there is a bug open about it too: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6689

Hope this helps.

I can't get Beryl to run either.

When I run it from Terminal, like this, I get this error.

Code:

$ beryl-manager
$ libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b

But it does start. When I try to run it again, and select the Beryl window manager, I get the following:

Code:

$ beryl-manager

I'm very new to Linux, so if you could go easy on the Linux-speak, I'd appreciate it.

Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
