As for your driver, more information would be most helpful. First, what graphics card do you have? (Nvidia? ATI? Intel? What model?) Second, what do you mean be "low graphics" and Finally, where did you get this driver. (Hardware drivers under System in the menu? Your card manufacturer's site?)

Installing beryl is covered in this sticky. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=809695 Scroll down to installing Beryl. That should point you in the right direction.

Good Luck!
