A preview of Novell Linux Desktop 10 (NLD10) was shown to an audience at the Solutions Linux conference this week in Paris. We have a selection of videos which display a variety of amazing effects through the use of XGL, including transparency, wobbling windows, desktop zooming, a 3D Cube for desktop switching, and a task switcher which displays a preview of windows.

It has nothing to do with Suse, or Linux ... blame the game writers for not programing for Linux.

You are right, but that will probably never change. I do blame the writers.
