hibernate problem

Hi,
I am having immense trouble getting hibernate to work.
I've successfully used the default persistence
mechanism to connect to and create the databases with
both postgresql and mysql, but when I switch to
hibernate persistence it tells me there are no
implementations of
org.keel.services.persist.PersistentFactory (below).
I'm running the example project 'default-hibernate'
which is supposed to work out of the box, right? 
Unfortunately, the example app doesn't even compile
let alone run. I had to drop the commons beanutils jar
into the svc-persist-base lib and get rid of a logger
category persist-default that was defined
svc-persist-base/conf/server/system.xconf before it
would compile. Isn't that what the example apps are
supposed to demonstrate? I'm a newbie to keel and I
like the idea, but if the example apps don't even work
what confidence can I have? I've been wrestling with
this for two weeks and I don't have any hair left to
pull out!
thx,
--Ron
