Has anyone succeeded in running Compiz under Sabayon?

[eduardhc]

I'd like to give it a try, so yesterday I unmerged all Beryl packages and installed Compiz ones. First attempt to run Compiz leave me without window borders and decorations .

Is there any specific guid to follow for Sabayon or the Gentoo wiki steps will be enough?

Cheers
Eduard

I'll give it a try anyway. I find Beryl somewhat "laggy" sometimes on my system. Thank you for the tips.

Cheers,

Somehow when I was fiddling with my system i turned it on and then all I got was half transparent window decorations when they were unfocused and ability to make a window arbitarily transparent when holding Alt and scrolling the mouse wheel. Maybe there were some other cool cheat codes but I couldn't find them.
