A) In order to run Beryl and other 3D programs I must enable
3D on my Radeon X1400 graphics card. That means that I must
choose a driver which can enable it. The possible drivers are:
1) Vesa. This is the standard Fedora driver, and has no 3D.
2) Mesa. Not sure if it has 3D or where it comes from.
Mesa isn't a driver, it's an OpenGL-compatible 3D-graphics
library.
3) Radeon. Also called FGLRX.
No, those are two different drivers. "radeon" is an open-source
driver that's included with Fedora, fglrx is a proprietary
driver available from ATI or third-party repositories.
B) There are different graphics environments, call X servers:
Xorg, XGL and X11.
X11 is the specification of the graphics environment, X.org and
XGL are implementations of the X11 specification.
