Jien kelli Compiz fuq SUSE, però kemm ilni li qlibt għall-Ubuntu, anke jekk ikkunsidrajt ninstalla l-Beryl, qatt ma sibt il-ħajra ninstallah għax l-installazzjoni dehritli ikkumplikata wisq.

Beryl works on my setup...
Ubuntu on Centrino Duo
But evrey 3 or 4 updates something gets royally screwed up. I keep
switching between the official packages and SVN to try to get around the
problem.
Guess we'll have to wait for Feisty!

Anton... are you sure that you are using hardware acceleration ? lol
Beryl is extremely alpha quality software. You just give it a try, enjoy it for a day or two and revert back. If you want something more stable stick to Compiz. For me they both still require some more polishing. I would give them another 6 months until its fit for stable use. Even newer drivers will change the situation.
Regards
i use beryl daily u hekk.. I was on the SVN tree up to a couple of days ago but now i switched back to the official releases which are currently at 0.2.0rc3. My desktop actually looks pretty sucky without it, now that i got used to it. It still is alpha software tho and this shows in the extra high use of cpu u hekk..altho since RC3 this has been reduced drastically..as an aside...anyone know why apart from beryl, xorg consumes a shitload of cpu at anything i do, even for example on a just booted desktop, and i drag my mouse across the screen to make a selection area, xorg easily goes up to 40% - 60% cpu usage and the animation jerks and gives problems. :S
