This is true.. Finally got beryl working last night by removing my = Geforce 256 (as the nvidia-driver-7184 port does not build on 7.0 = current.) and installing an old Geforce4 MX440 64mb. I was quite surprised how well the old Geforce4 functioned with Beryl = and all the desktop effects. Very cool.
