Hey Steven, try this:
Right-click the beryl icon in the system tray.  Click on "Beryl
Settings Manager".  At the top of the manager, click on the icon that
says "Desktop".  Make sure that "Desktop Cube" and "Rotate Cube" both
have checks in the boxes next to them.  The change should be immediate
- no need to restart Beryl.

HTH,
Andrew
