He didn't say if he turned on the Xgl server.

Edit the file /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager and set the follwoing:

DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER=Xgl

Restart your X server and try again.

No, (we) dont want Xgl. I am trying to get the same performance on my Vostro 1700 without Xgl. Xgl works great, but I cant run any of my other OpenGL stuff. So I would like to use plain nVidia drivers and Compiz, but the performance is weird. It will rotate the cube at lightning speed and then just "hickup" for about 2 sec, same for Alt-Tab. I can see Xorg going to 100% and then relaxing again. Can this be an issue with the AIGLX impl in the nvidia driver?

That particular symptom sounds exactly like the behavior of beagle on my machines - Silky smooth operation was attained by killing the beagle processes and removing the packages. YMMV.

Joe No, Beagle didn't see more than 10min on my machine - nuked if as soon as the machine booted the first time. As I said, what bugs me is my desktop PC with a lesser videocard (6600) and exactly the same install have none of these issues. And the laptop runs smoothly compiz with XGL installed - so the driver, card and install is fine - can only be something in X.
