As I'm sure many of you will be happily smirking to yourselves, I've
recently just discovered that opengl output does indeed actually work
for me pretty well under compiz.... :$.

There are some annoying flickers with my avant window navigator system
monitor but I think I can live with disabling that.

I think the subject still stands but for me it's no longer very important.

(Yes, FWIW, I've recently got my Myth setup working again after a *long*
period of brokenness/housemoving/lazyness)
