The Ubuntu team has released the beta for Ubuntu 7.10, Gutsy Gibbon. Highlights include GNOME 2.20, fancy desktop effects through Compiz Fusion, and more. Kubuntu 7.10 beta has also been released, featuring Dolphin as the default file manager, a restricted drivers manager, and updates and polish across the board.

The Xpress chipsets only recently gained 3D support with the open source drivers, and even that support isn't good enough to run compiz, unfortunately.
Compiz will work with the fglrx drivers, however, if you install xserver-xgl :-) I've been told that installing it will automatically configure it to start with X (which didn't happen previously with Feisty... It requires extra configuration there).
