For everyone who gets those headaches trying to read up on why games freeze with Compiz-fusion/Beryl. Or why they dont have a title bar after turning glx back on afterwards. Heres my "Quick and dirty" solution.
For disabling Compiz-fusion, etc:
1) Right click the desktop and select "Create New Launcher"
2) In the Command section input this
3) Name it Pre-Game (or whatever you want) and click OK
For Enabling Compiz-fusion, etc and emerald:
1) Right click the desktop and select "Create New Launcher"
2)In the Command section input one of these:
For Beryl
For Compiz-Fusion
3)Name it Post-Game (or whatever you want) and click Ok
It's quick, dirty, and doesnt require a script 15 lines long to accomplish something so simple.
Know a better way, please share.
