There is no real dependency - compiz could be used on a remote X display. Also, the lack of a 3D driver will prevent 3D acceleration in general, not just for compiz, so this should be taken care of at a more basic level, and AFAICT that's already the case - xserver-xorg recommends libgl1-mesa-dri. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
