Support for nVidia cards
From Beryl Wiki nvidia

WARNING: THIS HAS BEEN KNOWN TO BREAK FEISTY IN SOME INSTANCES, BREAKING THE WHOLE GUI SYSTEM AND NOT ALLOWING THE UBUNTU GUI TO LOAD SINCE NVIDIA CANNOT LOAD THE KERNEL MODULE

LOAD THE NVIDIA DRIVERS SEPARATELY –THEN –Execute the script below. Some repositories have out-of-date nVidia drivers and the script below is really hard to get undone. )))))))))))))))))

Solution for Kubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn

1. Download the latest driver (I’m using version 100.14.11)
2. Unpack it:

sudo -s -H sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1.run –extract-only

3. Remove ALL of the Nvidia modules from system (I’ve been using Adept for that)
4. Install linux-source-2.6.20 (e.g. “apt-get install linux-source-2.6.20″ with console or use Adept)
5. Unpack linux-source-2.6.20.tar.bz2 to the /usr/src
6. Make link: ln -s /usr/linux/linux-source-2.6.20 /usr/src/linux
7. Go to the NVIDIA drivers unpacked directory: cd ~/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-100.14.11-pkg1
8. Run Nvidia-installer: ./nvidia-installer
9. For me, it was safe to use nvidia-xconfig, but if you want, you can make changes manually.
10. Reboot.

After this actions everything working well!

1. Open a terminal. Execute:

sudo echo “Beryl & nVidia installation script for ubuntu Ubuntu Feisty”

(this one line requires your password so that, the next text paste is uninterrupted.)

2. Copy and paste all the text into the Terminal in one action. [Select all the text. Then middle button click in terminal]

sudo echo “Beryl & nVidia installation script for ubuntu Ubuntu Feisty”

sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.backup.beryl-script

echo “deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org feisty main

deb-src http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org feisty main” | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list

wget http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/root@lupine.me.uk.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get -y install beryl beryl-manager emerald-themes

sudo cp /usr/share/applications/beryl-manager.desktop /etc/xdg/autostart/beryl-manager.desktop

cp /usr/share/applications/beryl-manager.desktop ~/Desktop/beryl-manager.desktop

echo -e “Logout now and then press \e[0;31mCTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE\e[0m to restart xorg" echo "Installation completed !"

3. Now Logout and then press [CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE] to restart xorg (With Kubuntu it’s better to use [ALT+E])

DONE

P.S. Sometimes, there is no /usr/xdg/autostart directory. So you have to check if there is or not, and make it manually. (Kubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn NOTE)
