Overview of Modern Fancy UNIX Desktop Systems

“In the last few months, there has been a lot of talk about Xgl, compiz, AIGLX et cetera. It seems that ‘Xgl’ has become a synonym for fancy desktop on Linux – but no one seems to talk about the alternatives or how it all works. I have had a little look into this and am going to summarize it for y’all. I will explain where the following come from and how they work: Xglx, Xegl, Luminocity, and AIGLX.”
