+Composite manager notes
+-----------------------
+
+To use the composite manager it is required that the X-server has support
+enabled for the COMPOSITE, DAMAGE, FIXES, and RENDER extensions.
+For reasonable performance it is also required that hardware acceleration
+of the RENDER extension is enabled.
+
+Tweaks:
+
+If window resize/shading with composite enabled is ugly, try:
+$ eesh set compmgr.resize_fix_enable 1
+This problem should not occur with recent X-servers.
+
+If pop-up windows disappear immediately after having appeared (may happen
+e.g. with certain pop-up windows when using gnome > 2.12), try:
+$ eesh set compmgr.override_redirect.mode 0
+This should make the pop-up windows usable, but not always rendered properly.
