I do. It certainly is very stable for me. True that the KDE pager is not
compatible with it.
There are also some minor glitches with:
- OpenOffice and yast sw_single--the windows start larger than the screen and
need to be resized
- kaffeine--the display of buttons is sometimes messed up, but they are
refreshed when you pass the cursor over them. So it's not a functional
problem, but a cosmetic one.
I've been using Xgl/Compiz from the distro and from Quinn repository.
AFAIK, kwin (the window manager of KDE) already has some composite features in
SVN. So, the fancy effects will be native to KDE is the future (KDE4 most
probably).
