XGL –> 3D Virtual Desktop???

August 14th, 2006

Have you heard of XGL? XGL is one of the hottest topic of Linux community now. Basically it’s a virtual desktop with lots of transition / 3D effects. A real eye candy stuff. It can make your desktop turn like a cube while your video screen is still playing. But at this stage it is still difficult to setup and has limited support for certain graphics card only :(

I am still trying to get it work with my ATI X800XL on both SUSE 10.1 and UBUNTU 6.06
