Metacity Compositing Effects in Ubuntu 8.10

,----[ Quote ]
| Don’t have a graphics card capable of running desktop effects with Compiz on 
| Ubuntu? By enabling compositing in GNOME’s default Metacity window manager, 
| you get some eye candy and can run applications that require or benefit from 
| a compositing window manager. Metacity uses your CPU instead of a graphics 
| card, so it’ll work on anything - even a virtual machine.

Compositing With Metacity - An Early Look

,----[ Quote ]
| In its current incarnation, the compositing in Metacity is similar in feel
| and function to the compositing used in Xfce; it’s not particularly
| attractive looking, but it is extremely stable and performs well on lower-end
| systems. If you’re after features that only compositing can provide but
| aren’t after Compiz’ ultra-pretty but ultra-heavy management, you may have
| tried Metacity’s compositing already and been disappointed. However, the new
| version has dramatically stepped up on stability and performance, so once
| you’ve got your hands on GNOME 2.24 you may want to consider giving it
| another chance.
