SORRY: bad urls, corrected this time:
--------------
Looking deeper to compiz/xgl I found three problems in my system that I
report to you hoping to be somehow a little useful.
I didn't find any of them using Xorg 7
First my testing environment:
KDE 3.5
latest XGL cvs - XORG-7.0
Nvidia FX5200 64Mb
Latest nvidia drivers
Kernel 2.6.16.1
XGL problems:
1) xine is somehow broken with xgl, even with no composite managers:
it is very slow even when you are not playing videos and its gui is
corrupted:
refer to the photo:

2) other visual artifacts come when I try to play wmv videos with XV.
No problems with opengl, or others.

Compiz:
1) sometimes with no apparent reasons menu stop showing up.
So if for example I try, to click on FILE/EDIT etc nothing appears.
Restarting compiz solves the problem for a while.
I hope to have helped you a little bit.
Sorry if I you already know about these. :)
