Beryl and CentOS 5 with ATI video Card
Ok, I have not tested this yet, as soon as I did I will update this posts, so please if you try it and have good results (or bad) post it on comments.
First get the ATI drivers from its page, here:
http://ati.amd.com/support/driver-sp.html
follow the instructions given there for CentOS
Then you will need the Fedora Extras repository enabled in your yum configuration.
So create this file:
/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo
with this content.
[extras]
name=Fedora Core 6 Extras
mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=extras-6&arch=$basearch
enabled=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-extras
gpgcheck=1
Remember to turn this repo off once Beryl is installed, I think is better that way, so you do not mix packages when updating your CentOS
Then save it and run.
yum install beryl-gnome
That should be all, please remember to comment here if you get any good or bad results.

Hi,
This nearly works in that it downloads all the packages, but then kicks out an error:
warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 1ac70ce6
GPG key retrieval failed: [Errno 5] OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-extras'
The file does not exist on the CentOS installation. Any ideas?
In fedora.repo change the
In fedora.repo change the gpgcheck=1 to gpgcheck=0
Should work!
