I started testing compiz and compiz fusion to keyword it ~ppc, that was my first experience with it...

- I don't use gnome and I hate gconf, I happen also not to use kde...
- Currently I'm using xfce to test compiz
- I have a more or less old xorg configuration

Here the pitfalls list:

X
- make sure you have DRI and AIGLX enabled: (Option "AIGLX" "True" in your ServerLayout in case you are wondering)
- add some options to your Device: Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "true" and Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true"

compiz
- make sure that compiz-start script doesn't have gconf if you don't want it, otherwise the decorators won't show up.
- ccsm is quite a nice utility if you aren't using a full featured DE
decorators:
- emerald is the decorator you want, at least it allows some degree of configurability.

I think I won't use compiz right now since I'm not so fond of the effects, anyway it looks quite nice.

(once I get the cvs updated so I can keyword the stuff I'll mark most of it ~ppc)
