yeah, i conquer. I tried to start beryl in .xinitrc just like some window manager (e.g. fluxbox), all I got is some background and no further action.
so I guess its good to couple beryl to something else. Can anyone suggest some desktop manager that is not so bloated? thank you!! TFC On 6/19/07, Khairil Yusof <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

They control position, size, minimised, maximised, virtual desktops etc. Window managers are one part of the Gnome Desktop, which includes other parts like the file manager (which manages the folders on your desktop), the control panel, basic applications like gedit etc. Currently the default window manager is Metacity which is 2D, by using Beryl/Compiz you are replacing this part. Hope this answers your question.
