Bug Description

Binary package hint: beryl-manager

I had a fresh install of Edgy, upgraded to Feisty. After a bit of fiddling with 3D drivers, I installed beryl on AIGLX. It worked nicely. However, I imported an old exported set of settings (attached) from the previous install, where I had the same problem since 0.2.0.
Only some settings are affected.
Example: I have close and create effects set to glide 1&2, but what it does, in fact, is just fade in and out.

Note: removing .beryl* fixes the problem (but resets settings, obviously).

The attached profile sets the 'glide' options, but the effect was 'fade' - and other examples.

I believe that the problem has returned when any profile settings are touched (Add/Save, namely).

An interesting fact is that the password-requesting dialog and the shutdown menu in gnome have the effects I've set, while other windows keep 'fade'.

Apparently, the settings I make regarding the Close/Create effects stick until I switch on 'transparent cube', in which case they are reverted to fade in/out even though beryl settings manager claims it is set to glide.
Switching the cube back to opaque fixes the effects, too.

Beryl is replaced by Compiz Fusion, so has been removed from Gutsy.
