Guest thenthenio Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 When I started using Cooker some months ago I found it was very stable, then, as Windows (sadly enough), it started decreasing reliability time by time. Anyway I found Beryl something unbelivable, amazing, wondeful, but also useful. What I'm looking now is to have my Linux box working with Beryl an some other simple stuff. I do not really need Cooker, but now I can't live without Beryl. Is Beryl available in any non Cooker package sets? Many thanks.

Gowator Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 The stability of cooker depends to a large extent on the release cycle. Just before a new release it contains essentially the new release... then they add new stuff for testing... and more new and more... etc. until the next release cycle is almost ready when they start trying to stabilise and freze new packages etc. Beryl should be in the Mandriva 2007 normal (non-cooker) release.

dexter11 Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 But it has its old name there: compiz-quinnstorm. And IIRC the installation is not that straight forward as it should be. OTOH compiz is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thenthenio Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Before switching to Beryl, I tried to use Comiz. Unfortunately I was never able to have it working. Then I tried Beryl and it was running at the very first try! So I have to cope with cyclic unstability of Cooker until Beryi isn't included in an official release. Bye.

iphitus Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Reinstall. If through *some* freak of nature, coreutils has been removed, your installation is most probably cactus, and chances are, other things have been bust up pretty badly too.
