You are NOT using AIGLX in the NVIDIA driver - NVIDIA doesn't use AIGLX.
NVIDIA had accelerated indirect rendering (guess what AIGLX stands for)
almost since day one (say: 5 years ago or more). The AIGLX framework is
*only* used by open source drivers as we speak.
NVIDIA has implemented EXT_pixmap_from_texture as well, which enables
compiz - just like the AIGLX and Xgl do as well.
The NVIDIA implementation obviously works very well together with OpenGL
and XVideo - though there are still some rough edges.
Can everybody please stop distributing this FUD any further? Wrong
statements don't get right by repeating them over and over...
