i got some help from the fedora site (Here is the original Thread..read over it. http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthrea ... ge=1&pp=15 (http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=154077&page=1&pp=15))
telling me to install beryl-gnome so i did that but then this happened. the top of a window like where it has the minimize button, the quit button and the maximize button are all gone...like they r invisible, they r still there but invisible. and the i got the following error in terminal.

[code:58cb3]root@localhost ~]# beryl-manager
[root@localhost ~]# libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x5b
[/code:58cb3]

So then i installed Beryl (regular) and this came up in terminal
[code:58cb3][root@localhost ~]# beryl
