Hoorah!  So will we get to see a youtube video of coot running an all 
molecule script (say), each face of the cube doing a different chain?  
Hehe...

Excellent idea (although I would probably cheat and produce the video on
the machine with nvidia card that has been always able to run
coot/compiz combination).  On a serious note, sometimes I have to
project coot on a big screen from a laptop with intel graphics, and now
I don't need to turn off compiz every time I do it (of course, it is a
big question if rotating cubes, wobbly windows and fire spread across
the screen is attractive or annoying; but at least I will have fun when
they ask what kind of mac is that? :)

Coot est verendus,

Ed.

FYI,

I have found that Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) is capable of running
Coot, CCP4i, and Pymol flawlessly with an NVidia GeForce 9000-series
card with compiz and all the whiz-bang desktop effects enabled on my
Intel DG35EC motherboard. The only thing I have discovered so far that
does not run correctly with compiz enabled is MLB-TV in full screen
mode. (Sacrifices must be made.) This is an improvement over Fedora 8,
which I was running before. I'm waiting to upgrade to Karmic Koala
until some of the Gnome and PulseAudio bugs are worked out. It's still
a little flaky on both real and virtual machines for me right now, even
with a fresh install.

Cheers.
