I wanted to do it just to see if it would. It does the 3d rotating cube and a billion other things. I did it on the kids computer and they think it looks cool even when it really isn't doing anything. Everything seems to work as stated except for playing tuxracer. Tuxracer shows up in a smaller screen, but it seems to run right. The system is configured for Beryl and nvidia repositories. Overall it was fun to do, but not something I would want on a serious work machine.
well I tried installing compiz and the repositories error out, so maybe i will try to install beryl later on. It seems more painful than it should be though.
last week I installed beryl-manager, beryl, compiz, aquamarine and emerald. I did a fresh install of the ATI driver 8.33.6 for mobility radeon x600 before to check for 3d availability. I used the wiki from opensuse.org to configure beryl mit an ati graphics card. it was very easy and worked out of the box.
nevertheless, you have to be careful making updates of the aboved mentioned packages since they are all experimental especially beryl. so, i suggest, if it workes you should just lock the packages in yum, yast, apt or smart.
I had trouble installing the repositories through YAST. To get around that I used from the command line "rug sa --type=ZYPP repository source" and then it took.
okay I have YUM installed, and am trying to install beryl, compiz, etc and when i try to install it, it seems that it will flag some of the packages as installs but it then fails to find the package. YUM is enabled via YAST
oepnSuSe 10.1, 10.2 and currently running on SLED 10
I like your beryl screenshot. I cannot get screenshot to work for me. It has the default 'super' + mouse 1 button, and output to desktop, but nothing happens when I try to take a screenshot. The checkbox for screenshot is checked. Any ideas? I've tried other combinations to no avail

How do I add repositories to YUM?
Which repository did you add?
Which version of openSuSE are you running.. What Video Card?
is anyone running beryl on 10.2 because ive tried everything possible and nothing is working. i post errors nd no one helps me im really annoyed im back to compiz but annoyed cuz i wanna modify some things nd i cant on kde nd i cant put cgwd themes n e more which sucks. They should have never forked off. Did u install beryl with NVIDIA? Because i do exactly what it says nd i always get errors.
