Are you using the non-free binary drivers from ATI? I couldn't get them to
work with AIGLX, and I read online that they don't work. I assumed this was
for all ATI cards.

Maybe this can help:

The beryl website says "Please note: ATI Cards : Depending on your card you
may find that you can use the ati/radeon driver with AIGLX. If you
experience problems then you may need to use Xgl with the fglrx Driver.".

I guess it's just some cards that don't work. I have a x800

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.

that's weird, I have an ATI radeon and I use AIGLX on Edgy.
