Kurze Zusammenfassung von mir:
Positiv: AIGLX mit Compiz Fusion oder den kwin-kde4-Desktopeffekten scheinen jetzt benutzbar zu sein, zumindest läuft es bei mir flüssig.
Negativ: Schwarzer Bildschirm beim Wechseln in die Konsole, Logout, Neustarten, Runterfahren, der einem Systemfreeze gleichkommt. (Runterfahren aus der Konsole ala "sudo shutdown -h now" geht) (EDIT: Jetzt auf einmal funktioniert es wieder... Komisch. Kann ich auch grad nicht nachvollziehen...)
