[solved] Beryl messes up my screen - I don't know why!

I tried to configure beryl on my new Thinkpad X60 (which has an Intel GMA950). I use the very same settings that worked on my old notebook, too (it had an i810 graphics device, so I use the same driver), AIGLX, to be more precise.

I can start Beryl with 'beryl-manager', that's no problem and it almost works as it's supposed to be. But if I move windows, occasionally their content get's messed up and is unreadable. If I use the manager to switch back to metacity everything looks neat again.

Any ideas where I might have failed in configuring correctly?

They say if you reverse play a Windows CD you can hear satanic verses... But wanna know what's even worse? If you forward play it, it's gonna install Windows on your system!

Ok, it's solved... The problem was I didn't get it working at all on first tries. So I copied all the settings from my old laptop, which made it working but caused the mess. Now, in "Advanced Beryl Settings" I switched everything back to "Automatic" and it works out better... but: I still got that mess beneath the active window. Switching of "blur" in 'Beryl Settings Manager' did the job, there. So everything is neat again!
