I have tried it out. Like Vista, it's very pretty and quite useless (to |
2 |
me). xinerama does not work at all. It draws the panels on the 2nd screen, |
3 |
but there does not seem to be a way to access it at all. It appears that |
4 |
Xgl simply does not support it. |

I am using gnome, and have an ATI X1600. The open source drivers do not |
7 |
support this card, so if I want any kind of acceleration to work I have to |
8 |
use the binary drivers. This works fine, but again, no xinerama under Xgl. |
9 |
I have not tried cloning the second screen - it would not really be useful |
10 |
for me anyway. |

|
12 |
Under beryl, often in many windows the screen does not refresh right away. |
13 |
This appears to be some sort of bug where the rendering does not make it all |
14 |
the way to the output buffer. This exhibits by appearing to not respond to |
15 |
an event at all. If I try to move or update the window, the window is |
16 |
refreshed. |

18 |
I wouldn't really describe it as stable. |
