I hope this hasn't been asked too many times. I did a search but couldn't find the answer. I'm trying to install Beryl on an HP computer running Feisty with a ATI Radeon Graphic Card ( RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE]). I've been trying it using the great instruction page on this site that sounded like it should be easy. My problem is when I type in Code: glxinfo | grep vendor , I get back: Code: X Error of failed request: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 142 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext) Serial number of failed request: 16 Current serial number in output stream: 17 What the heck am I doing wrong?
Here's the whole thing: Code: top - 16:08:19 up 1 min, 2 users, load average: 1.40, 0.63, 0.23 top - 16:08:59 up 2 min, 2 users, load average: 0.96, 0.60, 0.24 Tasks: 111 total, 1 running, 109 sleeping, 0 stopped, 1 zombie Cpu(s): 2.3%us, 0.3%sy, 0.0%ni, 97.3%id, 0.0%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st Mem: 1555952k total, 367824k used, 1188128k free, 10628k buffers Swap: 4554388k total, 0k used, 4554388k free, 224636k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 5427 root 15 0 63076 18m 10m S 1.3 1.2 0:00.47 gnome-terminal 4797 root 15 0 158m 22m 7444 S 1.0 1.5 0:05.75 Xorg 5418 tom 15 0 15964 2272 1352 S 0.3 0.1 0:00.07 gnome-screensav 1 root 18 0 2912 1848 524 S 0.0 0.1 0:00.98 init 2 root RT 0 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 migration/0 3 root 34 19 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 ksoftirqd/0 4 root RT 0 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 watchdog/0 5 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 events/0 6 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 khelper 7 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 kthread 30 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 kblockd/0 31 root 20 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 kacpid 32 root 20 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 kacpi_notify 120 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.01 kseriod 145 root 21 0 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 pdflush 146 root 15 0 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 pdflush 147 root 16 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 kswapd0 148 root 16 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 aio/0 1944 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 ata/0 1945 root 19 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 ata_aux 1947 root 18 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 scsi_eh_0 1948 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 scsi_eh_1 1959 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 ksuspend_usbd 1960 root 12 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 khubd 1979 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 khpsbpkt 2107 root 11 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 knodemgrd_0 2136 root 11 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 scsi_eh_2 2137 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 scsi_eh_3 2363 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 kjournald I really shouldn't have a resource problem.
Might be a problem with your screen resolution. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/111257 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=428018
Thanks. I checked on those links, but they seem to be talking about systems with integrated graphics where mine is on it's own card. Where do I change/check my set resolution?
You can change the resolution in your desktop's control center. If that doesn't work, you can modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
