I used these links as references: http://alexceli.org/blog/2007/06/13/instalacion-de-centos-5-y-el-manejador-b... http://nicofo.tuxfamily.org/dotclear/index.php/2007/02/23/25-automatic-insta... http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=155503&page=1&pp=10
You must read all the coments too.
Basically, you need "the extras respository" (install karan fc extras respository for centos) and the "tuxfamily.org" xgl repository for fc6.
I attach: kbsingh-CentOS-Extras.repo: Karam extras repository for Centos xgl.repo: Xgl repository for FC6 modified to force FC6. fc-extras.repo: FC6 extras (only enable if karam has not any needed package) xorg.conf.flgrx: My xorg.conf that allow me beryl with xgl.
The steps, basically are: 1) Take a backup for your xorg.conf 2) Prepare the repositories (the karan repository is here: http://centos.karan.org/). 3) Install xgl. 4) Install beryl.

I'm actually curious about how you got the XGL part installed (I've been trying to get CentOS 5 + fglrx + XGL + beryl + dualhead as well). I got everything but XGL and beryl working.
As for the dualhead part. You want to not use XINERAMA or TwinView (nvidia specific) but instead use Pairmodes (ati specific). It basically amounts to having only 1 device and screen section (ie. you configure everything for one single screen) and then you add to the main Device section
Option "Mode2" "1920x1200,1600x1200" (second monitor modes) Option "PairModes" "1440x900+1920x1200,1440x900+1600x1200"
Once X is booted you can use xrandr (command line) to switch between various display modes (and aticonfig --lsp, aticonfig --set-powerstate=X, aticonfig --query-monitor also come in handy).
Here's my /etc/X11/xorg.conf (this is for an ATI fglrx driven 1440x900 LCD with occasional external monitor/LCD/projector):
Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" Option "Clone" "off" Option "Xinerama" "off" EndSection

so any help on XGL and beryl?
