The new main site layout is lovely and proffesional. I like it.
I just followed the instuction to install compiz 0.3.4 and extras on debian
etch with kde and an _evil_ NVIDIA kernel module.

It would have taken 10 minutes except for:

I have to start with
compiz --use-cow --indirect-rendering --replace gconf
If I don't use --indirect-rendering I end up the the NVIDIA black window thing.

I had to do
gconftool-2 --install-schema-file=animation/animation.schemas
to get animation to show up in gconf -editor

There may have been hints on the site that I missed :)

These effect have increased my productivity. I now deliberately keep lots of apps open to fill 4 work spaces and frequently open and close windows. I definitely look busier.

Thanks for the great software and site.
