Wiki: Beryl light your desktop
2007/1/3
Beryl是一个独立的wm，它可以使用xgl,aiglx作为Composite的后段。现在gentoo 现在已经把Beryl融入了portage树，所以现在不再需要导入其他的overlay就可以 使用它了。
首先设置一下make.conf
#在USE中添加aiglx项目
USE="... aiglx"
#设置显卡驱动和输入设备类型
VIDEO_CARDS=" radeon vesa"
INPUT_DEVICES=" keyboard mouse"
需要安装的软件只有两个：
升级到xorg7.1，其中已经包含了aiglx
emerge --update xorg-x11 xorg-server
之所以要升级xorg，其中的关键部分一在于显卡驱动，二在于aiglx。注意你的显 卡是否被源码开放驱动所支持。可以查看这里的列表： http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_AIGLX#Cards_Supported 我的显卡是FireGL 9000 mobile，是在支持之列的（注意，一定是开放的驱动， 如果安装ati-drivers这样的闭源驱动是无法打开aiglx的）.如果你的显卡太新，或者太 旧，不在这个列表中。那么可以选择各自的驱动，然后另外安装XGL支持。
编译beryl
emerge -va libwnck beryl
这里是具体列表

编译安装之后，需要重新配置 xorg.conf，下边列出一个配置清单：

因为beryl自己就是一个独立的wm，不像compiz，它不需要gnome和kde就能运行， 所以如果它独立运行的话，需要一些小软件来搭配它一起工作，会更加方便。从前 边的.xinitrc可以看出，搭配使用了 gkrellm2 和 trayer
gkrellm2 经典的计算机资源监视软件，可以用来显示未读邮件/CPU/网络等
trayer 一个小巧的system trayer软件，运行之后会
另外可以搭配的还有fbpanel，实现一个带trayer的任务栏。
发觉beryl还是搭配gnome或者kde这样的整套桌面软件用起来更加流畅，推荐配置 gnome-light+beryl。下边是一个world软件列表：
