		<description><![CDATA[Several hours of fun and a quick nap have passed since I installed XGL on my system and Compiz to manage it all. It&#8217;s running cute on my portable which is equipped with an Intel 855GM onboard chipset. But there are a few flaws which I can&#8217;t seem to correct. Two modules (state and trailfocus) [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=absolutebeginner.wordpress.com&amp;blog=312826&amp;post=25&amp;subd=absolutebeginner&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some time ago I wrote that I had tried XGL/Compiz using an Intel 855GM onboard chip and Ubuntu Linux. The guide I&#8217;ve used however wasn&#8217;t a right one or wasn&#8217;t good at all. Richard Querin replied with a comment saying he used a much simpeler guide which should work.Having being busy with all sorts of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=absolutebeginner.wordpress.com&amp;blog=312826&amp;post=24&amp;subd=absolutebeginner&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I found this blog post on Ubuntu Video. This is a nice demonstration of what XGL is capable of. Even more interesting is the fact that this movie is starring a Macbook 2.0GHz with (of course) Ubuntu Linux installed on it. This shows that Apple&#8217;s newest portable member is capable of some serious effects [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=absolutebeginner.wordpress.com&amp;blog=312826&amp;post=22&amp;subd=absolutebeginner&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ubuntu Linux comes with brown. Why brown you might ask? This color fits more with what the word &#8216;Ubuntu&#8217; means. It reflects humanity and mother earth better than any other color. For those reasons I&#8217;ve used the default theme for weeks back then with 5.10 Breezy Badger. But after a while, consistently using my portable, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=absolutebeginner.wordpress.com&amp;blog=312826&amp;post=17&amp;subd=absolutebeginner&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
