Problem with Beryl

Hi All,

Some time ago I tried Croquet on my laptop without problem. But after installing Beryl, the Croquet window became transparent and when I tried to run the Demo (Master) I received a "GL_ARB_transpose_matrix is not present" error.
Is Beryl incompatible with Croquet ?

Thanks in advance,

Francisco

Perhaps Beryl installs an earlier version of OpenGL? Croquet requires at
least OpenGL v. 1.4. GL_ARB_transpose_matrix was promoted to a core
feature in v 1.3.

If you have an nVidia card, use the offical nVidia driver from nVidia. I
also added -xshm in the Croquet.sh file just after the X11 call:

exec "$EXE/squeak" -plugins "$EXE" \
        -vm-display-X11 -xshm -swapbtn \
        "$DIR/$IMAGE"

With openGL in firmware instead of software, you'll get some speed
gains. Mine went up from 18 fps to 30 or so, depending on the system
load. Not shabby. I have a LOT of stuff running all the time, so a
devoted Croquet machine would do much better. I'm thinking of editing my
run-level 4 so that I'm in X-11 with networking on and nothing else
enabled. In Fedora init-level 3 is text and 5 is X11. Oh yes, glxgears
reports about 1200fps, so if I can optimize Croquet and kill off all of
the multitasking going on, it could be truly awesome. Ric
