My apologies. I missed this very important release note when I first 
sent this out.

Please note the following Nvidia window manager issue:

Bug Title:  compiz fails to start at login for nvidia graphics cards

Bug description:  compiz fails to launch upon login because Xserver is 
not loading GLX extensions. This is due to The SMF service 
svc:/application/opengl/ogl-select:default  picking the wrong type of 
GLX extension, it points to the generic Mesa library.

Error message:   /usr/bin/compiz-bin (core) - Fatal: Root visual is not 
a GL visual
  /usr/bin/compiz-bin (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
  /usr/bin/compiz-bin (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on 
display :0.0

Workaround:  Set vendor string manually :
$ svccfg -s applications/opengl/ogl-select setprop options/vendor = nvidia
$ svcadm restart applications/opengl/ogl-select

Restart X server and re-login
Issue will be fixed in SXCE build 113
