So it was running on KDE, but with no Kwin.
In short: We know about it, there is a kde frontend to this window manager (compiz), which is not yet complete, but should be trivial to do once somebody finds time to implement it. Maybe you? :) On a personal note: I don't think that Xgl is the way to go in the long term, since it currently requires an extra window manager, a running x-server underneath and some extra hacks to make it work. However the general technology is interesting and we will go for it in KDE 4. Cheers, Daniel
