Compiz and Beryl basically are Eye Candy 101. They make your windows
have a 3d appearance, a ripple effect, etc. It is also responsible for
the "cube effect" you might have seen before in videos such as this:

   Thanks.
   
   So xgl and aixgl are composition managers? And what are compiz and
   beryl, then, just the window managers? 
   
   Always curious about the relationship.

   Is it Beryl? I'm not sure but someone told me it was Xgl.
   
   Admittedly, I'm not really up on the diff between Xgl, aixgl, and
   Beryl other than Bery is a Compiz fork.
   
   Beryl will work with xgl or aiglx as the composition manager. Feisty
   actually comes with Compiz out of the box, but includes Beryl in one
   of the repositories.
