Thanks for your bug report. Does it really crash? Do you have a crash
report for it in /var/crash? If so, can you attach it here?

This error is common when another compositing manager is running (e.g. kompmgr) - only one compositor can be active at a time.

If using KDE, try disabling "shadows and transparency" in kcontrol; also make sure the kompmgr process isn't running.

If this is it, maybe we need $something in beryl-kubuntu to disable KDE's compositing effects by default? Comments?

Disabling the "compositor" of xfce i haven't got the crash of beryl.

The problem is that not run some window-manager.

I've installed the follow pack:

beryl,
beryl-core
beryl-manager
beryl-plugins
beryl-plugins-data
beryl-settings
beryl-settings-bindings
emerald
emerald-themes
