Start beryl automatically
KDE:
There are two ways to start beryl in KDE:
A: Just activate beryl-manager for a specific user:
echo "
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Exec=beryl-manager
GenericName[en_EN]=
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=false
TerminalOptions=
Type=Application
X-KDE-autostart-after=kdesktop" > ${HOME}/.kde/Autostart/beryl.desktop
B: It is also possible to create beryl.desktop in
/usr/share/autostart to enable beryl-manager for all KDE-Users
Gnome:
Just start your gnome-session and run
gnome-session-properties
and add
beryl-manager.
xfce4?(>=4.3.99):
xfce4-autostart-editor
Simply add
beryl-manger as entry.
Possible ways to solve problems:
If beryl-manager fails to start you might want to try to delete its configuration:
rm -rf ${HOME}/.beryl*
If
xfce4? still starts compiz, you could try to move gconf out of the way by doing:
rm -rf ${HOME}/.gconf*
Important: The configuration-files are going to be remove without any warnings!
