Hi all,
I have good news. I tried to run XGL on my machine since I installed Mandriva 2007.0, I have followed a lot of guides but no way.
I got it installing compiz-quinnstorm
urpmi cgwd csm cgwd-themes cgwd-themes-extra compiz-manager
Then, in /etc/sysconfig/compiz set COMPIZ=yes and /etc/system/xgl set XGL=yes
Restart your X server, it should start XGL and Compiz
I did in this way cause I had problem with Cube plugin; remember quinnstorm is a developer version not the stable one.
....
ADD SOME PHOTO.
....
Enjoy.

Upgrading Mandriva 2006 to Mandriva 2007
Simple:
1) download the iso image of Mandriva 2007.0 and create a bootable DVD
2) select upgrade during the installation process
3) get a big cup of coffe
4) Enjoy.
The process is not so smooth but at the end works.
Y'll probably get problems with Xorg.
First of all you must update your urpmi.cfg, that's mine:
2007Main ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/Mandrake/official/2007.0/i586/media/main/release {
hdlist: hdlist.2007Main.cz
key-ids: 70771ff3
update
with_hdlist: media_info/hdlist.cz
}
2007Contrib ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/Mandrake/official/2007.0/i586/media/contrib/release {
hdlist: hdlist.2007Contrib.cz
key-ids: 78d019f5
update
with_hdlist: media_info/hdlist.cz
}
2007PlfNonFree ftp://ftp.cica.es/mirrors/Linux/plf/mandrake/2007.0/non-free/release/binary/i586 {
hdlist: hdlist.2007PlfNonFree.cz
key-ids: caba22ae
with_hdlist: ./hdlist.cz
}
2007PlfFree ftp://ftp.cica.es/mirrors/Linux/plf/mandrake/2007.0/free/release/binary/i586 {
hdlist: hdlist.2007PlfFree.cz
key-ids: caba22ae
update
with_hdlist: ./hdlist.cz
}
urpmi.update -a
urpmi --auto-select
The upgrade procedure make some mistake, cause it leaves some old package so, you must clean your system by hand , for example in my case I had to uninstall all gnome 2.10 libraries.
