Ok, so somehow I didn't notice that my changes didn't take effect. I
just now realized it was still using 16 instead of 24. I guess I didn't
use sudo when editing xorg.conf and for some reason didn't think that
maybe I might need to change it again. I'm not sure. In any case, now
that I did make the change, Beryl is running fine, wobbly-windows and
all.

Now I can turn it off and only use it for showing off. B-)
