Hi
Have we considered enabling Compiz by default in GNOME and fall back to
metacity if the driver or hardware don't support acceleration? That
would get desktop effects out of the box on Intel and some ATI cards.

Last time I checked the default Remote Desktop utility (vino) was
still broken? Nothing but a frozen screen anyhow.
I use desktop effects as a propaganda piece for Linux, works great!
But even with my newer Intel 965/3000 it's a big sluggish. A 7900GT
Nvidia puts the hurtin on it though :D
I vote for keeping it super easy to enable, but off.
Even with the commercial drivers, it is damned hard to get working
correctly. (The nvidia config script needs a "turn it all on" option.)
I need to see how compiz-fusion handles configuration. Beryl, you can
have it loaded and have the window manager set to something non-beryl.
(Very nice when you need OpenGL for other things.) I am wondering if that
is an option in the "new" version.
