I know this may not be the place to post but thought it might interest
some.
All you nvidia fans can use desktop effects with the new beta drive.
Only problem so far is no border,so I'm unable to move or resize the
window.
Cube desktop works well.

setting
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "on"
in xorg.conf fixed this for me.
Also there is an interesting thread on
http://www.compiz.net/topic-4707-nvidia-aiglx-compiz
Would be nice to know how to use this slowdown fix in fedora.

That didn't seem to fix anything for me, I'm running 64bit ver.
I also ran into another problem, if I try to run a terminal I just get a
white box, the console never shows up.
I'm sure this has more to do with the nvidia driver and compiz not sure
if it needs to be filed or not.
4:13 p.m.
Did you try the patched compiz that was included in the discussion?

Thats funny I saw something in my logs complaining about using 32
I'll
try 24.
OK checked the log
"(WW) NVIDIA(0) 32-bit ARGB GLX visuals are only supported in depth 24"
That explains it.
the nextt line disables it.
I'm not using the patch, I may give that a shot. I'm trying not to patch
anything, I want the install to stay clean ... well somewhat anyway I
guess I blew that out with the nvidia beta driver.

Does it work in Gnome?, I'll install KDE and see if it works for me.
i got my borders back (in gnome) after
- deleting the ~/.gconf/apps/compiz dir
- restarting X
- toggling the gnome desktop effects button off/on
maybe this helps you too!
i found that compiz runs a lot smoother with high cpu load when
started with the "--direct-rendering" option.
there is a compiz entry in gconf /apps/gnome-session/rh/window_manager/
can this be used to add a custom command?

i was running a kernel compile in the background to generate the cpu
load :)
nvidia recommends using direct rendering
yes read it on http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=77030
this made me think of the --direct-rendering switch, and it worked out
nicely.
... btw. the 'export __GL_YIELD="NOTHING"' tip from that howto made it
again slower.

I finally got it going with gnome. I have no noticed any slow down what so ever.
I'm even compiling two applications and watching a divx movie with mplayer.
The screen updates on the wobble are sliky smooth. I'm very impressed.

Dwaine, would you mind posting your xorg.conf? I can't seem to get off the
ground with compiz. I got the Nvidia beta 9625 driver installed and working
easily enough, but when I start compiz, I get this:
[jcliburn@osprey ~]$ compiz --replace gconf
compiz: No sync extension
I'm running rawhide x86_64. I'd appreciate any other hints or tips to get it
working.
Thanks,
Jay

Dwaine, would you mind posting your xorg.conf? I can't seem to get off

Thank you for that. I just tried to run compiz yesterday and got the
same error. I hope it'll solve my problem too.

i found that compiz runs a lot smoother with high cpu load when
started with the "--direct-rendering" option.
With that option my desktop background turns black, the windows don't
"wobble" anymore and everything is still extremely slow.
I tried a current git checkout from freedesktop.org that support the
--use-cow option. That improves performance a lot (and makes compiz
actually usable) but I get the same blck desktop problem as mentioned above.

The git version already defaults to direct rendering. When I start compiz
from a shell I see a ton of these errors though:
compiz: Couldn't bind redirected window 0x160bd8c to texture

Any idea what this could mean?

That just means you're not running gnome-window-decorator.

I was wondering....
The compiz that is in rawhide, has it been compiled so we can use kde-window-decorator?
I tried running it and bash came back screaming that it could not find it.
