I finally got it going with gnome. I have no noticed any slow down what so ever.
I'm even compiling two applications and watching a divx movie with mplayer.
The screen updates on the wobble are sliky smooth. I'm very impressed.

i was running a kernel compile in the background to generate the cpu

yes read it on http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=77030
this made me think of the --direct-rendering switch, and it worked out
nicely.
