I see, thank you. However, I noticed the same symptoms with XGL as well. Does XGL not replace AIGLX? If not, what does? I've googled and read about XGL and AIGLX in wikipedia, however, I still do not understand exactly what does what. I should assume that getting Java (very important to me) and Google Earth (just a toy) is possible, because I had them running on Ubuntu 7.04 (with XGL). Compiz is also important to me, as I need the accessibility features (zoom and negative in particular). Thanks.
