Hiya, |

Check out this amazing Linux desktop eyecandy (you really need to watch |
| 16 |
the video as the screenshots don't tell the whole story ie. this is much |
| 17 |
more than just xcompmgr): |

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

I was actually looking over the shoulder of someone playing with this at |
| 26 |
linuxconf.au during a presentation by Keith Packard on 3D mouse location |
| 27 |
transformations in Xorg a few weeks ago and going Wow. Only just spotted |
| 28 |
the link after a catchup on the xorg list traffic. |

This stuff really blows away the eyecandy on the OS X and Window Vista |
| 31 |
desktops. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
It'd be cool if someone could build this thing on their laptop and demo |
| 34 |
it at a LUGS meeting. Any volunteers? |
