Re: beryl-settings broke...

People tend to be able to help you a lot more easily and quickly if you post something more substantial than "it's broken."  Do you have any log dumps you could post?  I don't know the first thing about beryl, so I can't help you (sorry), but you tend to get a lot more help around here if your questions don't require people to pry information from you.  Post as much info as you have on the issue, and maybe someone will be able to help.

Re: beryl-settings broke...

I had an issue with beryl-settings...I think there was a thread about it.

Anyway try getting rid of (or back up to a different folder) everything in ~/.beryl.

Those files store settings preferences, but after one of the upgrades
I think the settings manager has trouble reading the existing files.
Delete them and they'll be regenerated, and you should be able to start up
beryl again.
