Does anyone have xgl working with KDE? If so, is it stable, worth the effort to setup, etc?
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).
