Have fun! :-) > > Beryl works fine on my machine with the 1.0-9629 Nvidia driver. I have two suggestions though: 1. We probably should have a port for the emerald themes. I think Beryl actually has a compilation of themes available on their site. If I find some time I can whip it up. 2. Would it make more sense to have a Beryl meta-port? I can't imagine that anyone would just install beryl-core and not beryl-plugins, beryl-settings, and beryl-manager. I suppose it isn't that difficult to install each port individually, but I figure that most people would want to install them all at once. Other than that, it works great! Thanks for the work on beryl and X.org! Sincerely, Dave Grochowski
