My scim doesn't work on my Notebook in english locale, so write it in english.
I have test it on my Notebook Compaq 2811AP and on my PC which have a Radeon 9250 Card.
Because my Notebook is slowly when running gnome, so I decide run Xubuntu, but I want to install a AIGLX on my Notebook, there have many guide on internet, but most of them is on gnome and have compiz and have many packages need install, I don't want install gnome packets, so I spend some time to study AIGLX and some relative papers. I found if you have a openGL X server support composite feature, and a window manager support composite, you can run AIGLX, I found a window manager named bery support composite, and a X server named Xorg-air support openGL and composite, So I test it on my Notebook, and it worked, you just need install Xorg-air and bery and some relative packages. I hope this guide have some use for thats have pool video card and pool CPU!

7. restart gdm
using CTL+ALT+F1 enter console and login in
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
using ps -ef to see Xorg-air is running or not, if it's running, then using gdm login into xfce, and open a terminator, run "beryl-manager", if the beryl is startup, the aiglx is running now.
