Re: problem with beryl

open up a konsole and type "beryl-manager".
beryl should then start
and the red beryl icon should pop up in the system tray.
if beryl starts but you still have kwin,
then right-click on the beryl icon,
click on "select window manager",
then click "beryl".

Ensure 3D acceleration is enable and functioning. With your card glxgears should give over 2000 fps. if it's 1000 or less, it's not working.

GL!

Re: problem with beryl

Search on "missing window decorations" here and on Ubuntu Forums. You need a line in your xorg.conf file that provides for glx extensions -- depending on your graphics system, it will look a lot like this (in the "Screen" stanza):

Option     "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"

You also may need compositing enabled in xorg.conf -- that is a stanza at the end of xorg.conf that looks like this:

Section "Extensions"
  Option     "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
