Current COMPOSITE feature crashes a lot of applications. How about this one?

Here here!

Stability of the composite extension is erm... non existant? :)

I've gone through two graphic cards (granted, both nVidia (GeForceMX460, GeForce2GTS), and two completely different hardware platforms (Athlon 1.3, and Athlon64bit3200+), both give lockups consistantly after using xorg with the composite extension enabled after about 1Sec-1Min of use..

I want my pretty desktop damnit :P

works good for me! nvidia geforce 6800GT with the kde configuration tool in control center.

I don't get any crashes but sometimes windows forget to stop being transparent after I move them or change the size. Oh, and some games flicker a bit.
