Hi to all!
I'm using nvidia 6629 + Gnome on my Gentoo box; when i activate composite in xorg.conf, my x server crashes after some minutes of use...
Someone else is having this problem?
[sorry for my english

Yes, it does for me too, and not only in GNOME, but fvwm also. I have commented out composite in my xorg.conf because of this. Not to mention glx did not work with composite enabled.

Compositing is still experimental with a lot of stuff.
GLX doesnt work yet in the nVidia drivers, as GL apps try and draw to the wrong surface. There is an option to enable it, but I wouldnt.
