[News] Linux 3-D Eye Candy for Old Hardware

One ring to rule them all ... xcompmgr, transset-df and 3ddesktop

| A year ago (actually about 15 months, if memory serves), before
| Beryl and before Compiz, 3ddesktop was a popular toy. It doesn't
| compare to a full-scale Beryl rig with all the bells and whistles,
| but it's light enough not to need extraordinary hardware and easy
| enough to set up that it doesn't need much explanation.
