Ubuntu 6.10 Beryl, XGL, and Compiz

I really did think that Vista was sweet because of the rotating 3D effects, but really Beryl on Ubuntu is smooth as can be… I don't even have that great a video card…

I did have the white screen issue, but I was able to resolve that by getting the latest from CVS. I learned how to do it from here 3d-desktop-beryl-and-xgl-on-ubuntu-edgy.html. Actually it was really easy. I'd recommend getting your 3D drivers working first, but now I am not envious of Vista at all. Here I get the sweet 3D eye-candy but without all of the crap DRM. To say that I am enthusiastic would be an understatement. I can't wait to see what is in Feisty Fawn!
