Hmmm. Looks like I may have installed the bleedin' edge build:

beryl-core-snapshot-r4338-2.1
beryl-manager-snapshot-r4338-2.1
beryl-plugins-snapshot-r4338-3.1
beryl-vidcap-snapshot-r4338-2.1
beryl-settings-snapshot-r4338-3.1
emerald-themes-snapshot-r4296-3.1
emerald-snapshot-r4338-2.1
aquamarine-snapshot-r4338-2.1

(There may be more - this was a quick scan down my installed packages)

For myself, I added the beryl repository into YaST

For openSUSE 10.2:

 Type        - rpm-md/repomd
 
 Protocol    - HTTP
 Server Name - software.opensuse.org
 Directory   - /download/X11:/XGL/openSUSE_10.2/

...but what you'd do for any of the other distros is a bit of a mystery
(despite having just set up a RHEL box to run Oracle... and wasn't that
a pain?!)
