Is there a way for a X11-dumb person to find out wether his currently
running system has support for that? I'm using radeon driver on an ATI
R250 in Xinerama Mode (the MergedFB thing doesn't work for me). I know
this has at least an effect on XRandR, but the Xorg log doesn't say
anything negative about XRender or XComposite (the extensions are
initialized thought)

Not from me, but I'll certainly let you know wether oxygen style works
here. Do you guys have a rough estimate when these issues should be
(mostly) fixed? Is "after akademy" a goot time to test this again?

I hope the oxygen style can be configured just like other kde styles.
Unfortunately that config-widget that exists in the style doesn't work
here.

PS: I do like the Oxygen style, from what I could see so far.
