XGL effects managment

Hello there...
I managed to start xgl with the comand

startxgl 0 kde ati

my startxgl script is

#!/bin/bash

USE_COLOR=1
msg() {
  if [ $USE_COLOR -eq 1 ]; then
    echo -e "33[1;32m==>33[1;0m 33[1;1m$133[1;0m" >&2
  else
    echo "==> $1" >&2
  fi
}

usage() {
  echo "Usage: startxgl [display number] [window manager] [gfx]"
  echo
  echo "  Command line arguments are optional."
  echo "  Default [display number] is 1."
  echo "  [window manager] can be: 'gnome', 'xfce' (no session), 'xfce-svn' (no session), or 'xfce-session'. Default is 'gnome'."
  echo "  [gfx] values are 'ati', 'nvidia' or 'other'. Default is 'other'."
}

if [ "$1" = "-h" -o "$1" = "--help" ]; then
  usage
  exit 0
elif [ -z "$1" ]; then
  xgldisplay=1
else
  xgldisplay=$1
fi

msg "Starting XGL at display :$xgldisplay"
if [ "$3" = "ati" ]; then
  msg "Using card: ati"
  Xgl :$xgldisplay -ac -accel xv:pbuffer -accel glx:pbuffer &
elif [ "$3" = "nvidia" ]; then
  msg "Using card: nvidia"

  Xgl :$xgldisplay -ac -accel xv -accel glx:pbuffer &
else

fi

and i use csm and gcompizthemer

to change the effects and themes...

I tried to disable effects like animating menus (ex pressing the k-menu the hole menu animates itself) but i did't manage to do anything?

Can anybody show me hoe to disable these effects?

Must i install and use beryl instead csm?
If = yes
then
How do i completely install it?

Thanks in advance !
