I found all my window contents were suddenly displayed. Good News: Although you don't seem to be able to use Limewire in Beryl, you can switch back to beryl after you get your window contents displayed, and you can continue to work with your neat-o 3d desktop and the window contents remain displayed until you restart Limewire! (Worked for me, anyway. Hope it does for you too.) P.S.: I'm using Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty with a Radeon x1600 Pro and Beryl. Installed Limewire Pro from the Limewire website, with the package installer that automatically opens it from Firefox. Installation was easy and Java 5 installed automatically (after confirming in the terminal box below the install when it paused). After restoring the Beryl window manager, you may have to restore the Limewire window from your taskbar on the bottom, and if you try to open another window, such as your options, with Beryl, then you'll have to do the whole window manager thing again. It's good to get all the preferences set up first, and then switch back to Beryl. Bad News:

Also, to those having problems with compiz and beryl, IMHO java is flaky on linux as is. Adding it to the flaky layer provided by either of these two window environments increases your potential problems exponentially. The only fix I could think of is uninstalling compiz or beryl and going back to regular old kde or gnome.

I had it installed but it didnt do anything when I tried to run it. just doing the dpkg-reconfigure fixed the problem for me. And to king2, I personaly like limewire because it is set up very well and is very configurable. Also, I know that all of the above mentioned programs connect to the same network, but I have always seemed to have better luck with limewire myself.
