For those of you who were/are using Compiz Quinn AIGLX and Intel embedded graphics cards. beryl is unbelievably easy to set up.

1) I added these repo from post #1

Code:

deb http://dev.realistanew.com/beryl edgy beryl
deb http://beryl-mirror.lupine.me.uk/beryl edgy beryl

2) I did

Code:

sudo apt-get update

3)

Code:

sudo apt-get install beryl-core beryl-plugins emerald beryl-settings beryl-manager beryl beryl-dev emerald-themes

4 Compiz was removed and Beryl installed (though I still needed to "completely remove" a few compiz packages via Synaptic).

5) In Sessions > Startup Programs: I removed /usr/bin/compiz-manager and added /usr/bin/beryl-manager

All is working wonderfully. Tweaking settings in Beryl Settings Manager now.

WoooHooooooooo! Sweet!

Thanks PriceChild and Amaranth. And of course...Thanks QUINN for forking Compiz to Beryl.
