For anyone who doesn't know it yet, there is a new closed-source
OpenGL game for Linux called Amnesia, with the very interesting
property that the developers offer a test program that renders several
complex GLSL-based effects one at a time.

Unfortunately, it's pretty broken right now (on softpipe), and thus
could be a great test to get to work, since it's much easier to figure
out what's happening than in full games/demos.

It can be found at:

The test appears to use several advanced techniques like bloom,
deferred rendering, SSAO, water rendering, and several lighting and
fog models.
