Starting "beryl-manager" at login

[Greg Booth]

Actually you might get more ( and maybe too much ) if you echo out the
output to the log file. Try:

/usr/bin/beryl-manager > /tmp/cmd.out 2>&1

This will give you std out AND std err in the file cmd.out.

This may produce more documentation than you want though.
