Actually, I had a 400mhz running Windows XP Pro for - I am uncertain of exact time - but atleast over 18 months and for some of that time it did also act as a (crappy) War§ow server. Then, for reasons not to be dug deeper into, the flip on the back of the PSU was... well flipped and I had to open a window. R.I.P. Anyway.

Thing for me is I guess, to get it all installed etc. Because until that's done, if something messes up - I'm stuck. Thanks to the above I don't have two computers anymore so can't look stuff up, and things don't seem very self-explanatory or logical. From the link posted by 1337w4r3z, I quote:

"sudo apt-get install compiz xserver-xgl libgl1-mesa xserver-xorg libglitz-glx1 compiz-gnome"

I can't even make enough question marks to express my feelings.

Hmm ok here is an easier way for you to give xgl a chance, Kororaa linux is a distro based on gentoo and comes with xgl pre configured in a live cd, this means you boot form that cd and ejoy the full graphic interface no ned to install unless you like it and everything works fine for you.

Now this distro was flaver was taken out due to gpl violation since they included NVIDIA and ATI drivers so they no longer distribute it, but you can get it form mininova torrent tracker this is the link if you still want to try it http://www.mininova.org/tor/246012 .

Good luck.

Wow thanks, will be interesting for sure... As long as it fits on a normal CD as my DVD burner has for some reason totally forgotten that it can handle DVD's in any way, heh. That was over a year ago by the way, perhaps it's time to get a new one...

-edit-
I'm sure in some way I should be able to have the CD on my HDD and still boot from it, would be a kabillion times easier and better. Are Daemon Tools fake drives counted before Windows is loaded...? :scratch:

-edit2-
So close but so far away. Got it all except actual CD's. Curses, curses, curses...

Even closer trying to run it with VMWare but still getting errors, arrrgh... 0.2 version of koraraa gets a nice clean error straight away, 0.1 gets a lot further but fails to initialize actual graphics Sad Gah...
