Re: desktop effects: XGL or AIGLX? compiz or beryl?...

I believe AIGLX is included by default, so it is the more standard choice.
The ATI drivers (fglrx) don't with AIGLX, so I am forced to use XGL.

Hi,
I plan to install a Linux distribution on my friend's laptop. It has a
nVidia
card, and 3DEffects are supported, I already tested it with many other
distributions, including Edgy.
But I wonder what's the future of Desktop efects on Ubuntu: Is it XGL or
AIGLX?
Because I want to follow the distribution's choice on that point, and dont
want to switch in a near future, if I choose a nearly unsupported
technology.

Thank you for your answers.
