Beryl for Gnome - Wow!


Just a short note regarding my Fedora Core 6 adventure. I just installed Beryl for Gnome. Wow! I thought that the Compiz desktop effects were cool. That was nothing! And installation was easy, probably because I already had installed everything else I needed when I set up Compiz. All I needed to do was yum install beryl and run it. The effects are awesome, and there's more of them with much more flexibility. Additionally, the computer seems more responsive and snappier, as if I had just added more ram or a faster cpu. If you run Gnome or KDE give it a shot. If you run into problems there is no shortage of help in the forums.
