sry, for top posting.. its an issue with yahoo right now....

I'll be doing this myself and had wondered about the new GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap option in the beta driver.
I think it needs to be enabled in xorg.conf before aiglx can be turned on for nvidia cards.
I could be wrong, but that might need to be set manually before aiglx can be enabled.

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to get aiglx/compiz to work on my FC6 box, I installed the 9626
beta driver from livna, which is working fine. However, every time I try to
use the 'Desktop Effects' application in Gnome to enable the 3d effects I
get the following error message:

'Desktop effects could no be enabled'

I've searched the logs for a more detailed error message, unfortunately I
didn't find any. My card is a Geforce FX 5200, my xorg.conf is listed below:

# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
# nvidia-xconfig:  version 1.0  (buildmeister at builder3)  Wed Sep 20 16:56:19
