These instructions worked well for me. But how will frugalware's compiz
handle Xgl vs. non-Xgl in future ? To run in Xgl, compiz needs
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/mesa-cvs/lib/ , when using the nvidia beta
drivers not.
Is there a way to detect if the running X server is Xgl ? Otherwise,
something like
  ( compiz --options || LD_LIBRARY_PATH=... compiz --options) &
would be possible, except that it's undesirable when compiz crashes
while on a normal X server.
