Right now KDE4 can run with effects enabled using regular X Compsiting through software and runs pretty nicely.

Right now I'm running KDE4 inside a VM, and am connected to it wirelessly with an X server that's using the fbdev driver and I pretty much can't tell the much difference between that and running X natively and with the Intel DRM drivers. I get the transparency and all the other effects.

$ glxinfo |grep renderer
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer

I'm not using gallium or anything. I wonder why can't Fedora just "copy" what the KDE folks did.
