Hello,

as Jeff already pointed out: Yes. I have. It kicks asses. :-) The only
thing I dislike at the moment is that I have no *classic* xoverlay. So I
can't watch a video using mplayer and xv and put a xterm with the
overlay color over mplayer and have a real transparent background. But I
can live with that.

It scrolls fast. The xv replacement from nvidia (which is transparent to
at least mplayer; the only xv application I use at the moment) seems to
be fast, to watching videos as 1600x1200 or vice versa is fast. And
scrolling in fullscreen xterm/acroread is very quick. With the free nv
driver and using CCW you could watch how the screen was updated from the
right to the left (when rotatet left). This is gone.
