Beryl on an old ubuntu install

First things first. You have to get ubuntu up to date. Your best bet is to use the GUI interface especially if you done some hacking on your system.

I personally had to download a brand new iso and reinstall ubuntu. Then I got to update everything and copy and paste the beryl install stuff.

It is so pretty. This thing is completely worth it.

Suddenly my linux machine is better looking then OS X and years ahead of Vista which made start laughing hard enough to almost fall over.
