Description Alex 2007-03-17 04:11:25 UTC
I'd like beryl to be support in gnome-wm's WINDOW_MANAGER list.

Adds support for beryl in WINDOW_MANAGER variable in gnome-wm

I wrote this little patch, worked for me. The only issue is that it starts emerald, not whatever the user selects in beryl-manager, if using beryl-manager. Emerald is the default window decorator for beryl though, so I assume this would be a good default.

Hrm... Is this still valid, since beryl will merge back with compiz?
Comment 3 Vincent Untz 2007-05-08 14:49:44 UTC
Marking as NEEDINFO until Alex replies :-)
Comment 4 Alex 2007-05-08 16:24:50 UTC
Depends on what you want to do. Compcomm (temp name of beryl/compiz merge) probably won't have a release for a while. But then again, people have been starting beryl in other methods for ages, so why bother.

So I'll leave it up to you. Include it for the few months or however long, or don't.

Ok, let's put it in since it doesn't harm.
