Ahh OK, so this would affect ATi users running under fglrx+Xgl or Older nvidia users + Xgl then? Does it affect other classes of user too? I guess I'm asking under what circumstances would the server support it, but libGL not support it? I may be completely out of date now, but I was still under the impression that for when we run compiz under Xgl, we need to issue a bit of an LD_LIBRARY_PATH hack to run it against Mesa's libGL... In such scenarios, the libGL /would/ support tfp no? Thanks for the info, it's very insightful :) Col _______________________________________________ compiz mailing list compiz@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/compiz
