Beryl won't let me log in!

[Sturm]

Well, I finally have Ubuntu installed on one of my computers with a mid-range CPU (P4 2.8GHz) and graphics card (GeForce 6800 AGP, I think). I decided to install Beryl as well, using the automatic script available from the official site. It took nearly sixteen hours to do so, mainly due to some 200 Bytes/sec. download rate, for some odd reason. Nevertheless, the guide said NOT to interrupt the script, so I didn't. I let it run completely until it was finished and told me to reboot.

I did and, after rebooting, attempted to log in. It started to load everything up, but then it went to a black screen with a cursor in the upper-left corner, then back to the login screen again. I've tried it twice more since then with the same result.

Can anyone help out this Ubuntu & Beryl newbie to get them both working again? I'm not even sure if this is the proper place to ask this question, but I figured it would be a good enough start. If there is a better place, please let me know and I'll be happy to post it there. Thanks.

For some reason, the next morning, I was finally able to log in. I guess Beryl is smart enough to figure out when it isn't working and turn itself off. After trying once more and achieving the exact same result, I decided to just uninstall it and try a different method.

The original method I used was by creating the shell script listed in the Beryl site's Wiki. I chose to install it via the guide here in the forums, and things are almost 100% better! I was able to use Envy to get the nVidia drivers for my card, then followed the rest of the instructions to install Beryl. Not it almost works perfectly!

Except for the Emerald Themes. They don't seem to work at all, so I've disabled Beryl for the moment. I'm going to have to dig around to see if I can find out how to fix this problem. before I re-enable Beryl as my Window Manager again. Unless someone out there can help me out on this thread?
