Hello,
I've been hitting my head against the wall on this one for a while.  I'm 
having trouble getting compiz to work on my system.
In FreeBSD 6.x I had beryl/emerald running and it worked FAST... cube 
switching, wobbly windows, etc.


compiz --sm-disable --indirect-rendering --replace ccp
make the windows redraw REAL slow, unusable.

compiz --sm-disable --replace ccp
Without indirect-rendereing, the Desktop goes black, and newly launched 
windows are all black:


Here is my system info:

Please help me get compiz working!  If I can't get this working, I'm 
considering buying a card for my PCIe 16x slot.  What have people used 
to get compiz working?

Rudy
