Kubuntu XGL Beryl (Small Problem)


I made another copy of this thread here,
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...36#post2496536
but I'm posting here as well because it's a more general problem, though I'd like it to be searchable in that forum as well. I'll check both, but if you want to keep it to one thread, post there please. Thanks


Alright, so I followed these instructions [link]http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Dapper/XGL[/link]
and everything went smoothly until the very last line

Quote:
In KDE (Kubuntu), you can add a simple script to the "~/.kde/Autostart/" directory that activates those commands:

And I got confused. I ended up using sudo nano /home/xasz/.kde/Autostart/startxgl.sh (my user name is xasz)

And copied
Code:
#!/bin/sh
xprop -root -f _XKB_RULES_NAMES 8s -set _XKB_RULES_NAMES xorg
setxkbmap -model pc105 -layout us
if [ `ps aux | grep Xgl | grep -v grep | wc -l` -eq 1 ] ; then
	beryl-manager
	beryl-xgl
fi
into it and saved. Now, whenever I start, kate opens the file up... it's not executing it. It's simply opening it and I don't know why (I'm kinda noob)

I know it's got to be a simple problem, but I can't figure it out. typing
Code:
beryl-manager
then waiting...
then typing
Code:
beryl-xgl
gets it to work perfectly, other than it crashing when I go to shutdown, but that doesn't bother me much. (I'd like to fix it if anyone knows how...)

Anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance
