Thought I'd post my findings here as well in case others had similar issues, in reply to my original post.

I think I've found the solution for the keybinding bug!
I've combed thru the gconf-editor, and under Compiz -> General -> All Screens -> Options, it's seems the entries in there that are being used for the key binds are *_key. Such as, my "run_key" and "show_desktop_key" were "Disabled". As soon as I changed them to <Super>r and <Super>d respectively, the functions came back. But what is strange is, there are still the other entries in there that used to work such as "run" (which has the description of "Show Run Application Dialog"), and "run_button". I never had "run_button" bound, but just the "run" entry was bound to <Super>r, so it seems this entry has been deprecated? I'm not sure what the "*_button" entry ever did as it still has the same description as all the others?

Same thing with "show_desktop", and "show_desktop_button" entries. I'm now using the "show_desktop_key" entry, and it seems to be working fine.

Are the "*_button" entires gone with for good now and we're moving across to the "*_key" entires?

Now the only issue I have is the wobbly bug

EDIT: Does anybody know how to turn off the "Zoom out slightly, then rotate, then zoom back in" feature of the cube? I think I prefer the nice and quick rotation

I have problems compiling the newest cgwd version:

any help greatly appreciated

[Xamindar]

I have a problem with emerging and I thik it is related to xgl. Should I just unmask this package or is there a serious problem I should wait for?

[sternklang]

If I'm not mistaken, that version of metacity is in the overlay to support AIGLX rather than Xgl. Metacity is the standard Gnome window manager. It doesn't run under Xgl, it's replaced by compiz instead. So you can mask that particular metacity version and you won't need the masked gtk+ as a dependency.

I just updated to compiz-quinn-0.0.13.31 and cgwd-0.55 and rotate up/down with ctrl+alt+up/down doesn't work anymore. Although it is still defined in plugins/rotate/screen0.

Also maximize/restore seem a bit weird. The window just maximizes/restores very quickly with a very little (if any) animation. Anyone know the causes of these?

when you move the window in the desktop, the speed is very slow now.

Hope this will soon be fixed.

I have a problem when trying to test xgl in a nested window, it gives me this error

[Jupiter1TX]

[FatMom]

problem solved, never did eselect opengl set nvidia after emerge the driver and X was not able to load GLX, now its solved, and XGL works fine.

thx anyway !

[opqdan]

I just wanted to chime in here and say thank you to all the devs working on the packages (Xgl, compiz, cgwd), the overlay, and the gentoo wiki howto. I just upgraded to Xgl/compiz-quinnstorm/cgwd after using a Kororaa livecd and realizing that my ATI 9800 XT would indeed work (I seem to remember the wiki saying that it would not). All I had to do was follow the few simple commands in the wiki for setting it up. A few emerges, edit some config files, and voila, it works seeming-flawlessly.

This is as close to a simple, click-to-install, as it is possible to get in Linux. Thanks everyone.

Only problems I have are the kaffeine (xine) seems to skip a little bit sometimes, and that Google Earth is a little laggy (but suprisingly works, I assumed I would have to run it in a sepparate X server like a 3d game - but thhat hard locks my computer0). I assume that these problems have workarounds or fixes, so I'll have to read through the thread and find them.

[Maedhros]

Please continue in XGL (Part 6).
