It works!!!
I'm sorry, but getting beryl to work under kubuntu was such a pain that I
switched to gnome. Beryl worked a little better. It started and some effects
worked, like wobble windows, but the window frames vanished.

With compiz fusion, the UI is sane. Not all the effects work... Setup was a
breeze.
There are some deficiencies... like Alt-Tab doesn't switch between windows
if there are only two windows open. If three are open, it works fine. Maybe
I am missing out on some option as of now.

You don't have to miss out anything actually. In Trevino's repo
there's something called compiz config settings manager, which is
similar to the beryl manager you might be used to.  Command line pe -
ccsm and python based gui should be up.

you should get to play with some even cooler effects like window
transparency etc ... its cooler than beryl.

And if you prefer  a different decorator then
compiz --replace -c <your-fav-decorator >

You could use aquamarine (right ?) for your kubuntu.

play on,
C
