Hiya,

Check out this amazing Linux desktop eyecandy (you really need to watch
the video as the screenshots don't tell the whole story ie. this is much
more than just xcompmgr):

   http://www.linuxedge.org/?q=node/58

It is apparently available in SUSE Linux 10.1beta3 or higher:

   http://en.opensuse.org/Xgl

I was actually looking over the shoulder of someone playing with this at
linuxconf.au during a presentation by Keith Packard on 3D mouse location
transformations in Xorg a few weeks ago and going Wow. Only just spotted
the link after a catchup on the xorg list traffic.

This stuff really blows away the eyecandy on the OS X and Window Vista
desktops.

It'd be cool if someone could build this thing on their laptop and demo
it at a LUGS meeting. Any volunteers?
