I don't use it cos I don't have drivers.. when I enable drivers there's a windows vista effect.. CRASH EVERYWHERE OH NOES  Lips Sealed
and it's damn easy to install beryl.. I'd rather have that than the desktop effects


btw brains.. I use ubuntu at school (system admin doesn't know yet sssh) and those comps don't have graphics cards either.. works fine though
better than here even..

  Yes.  I disabled them, and was very impressed, both with the desktop effects, and Beryl, but I get better performance with my graphics card drivers installed, and I need functionality, not pretty effects, really.

Beryl does have some functional stuff
like take notes on screen.. I use that sometimes.. mostly to just draw some stickman on screen when I'm bored
or the screenshot thing.. kinda usefull too
