On my nouveau it just says: "Desktop effects required hardware 3D
support." I will try with the Radeon and Intel graphics stuff next week.

Right... I don't think I actually tested the XRender code then.
But I did test the OpenGL code on Radeon and the Intel chipsets that I
had.

Right. That is expected as the 3D components are not in the nouveau driver
yet. Based on "http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/":
"Any 3-D functionality that might exist is still unsupported. Do not ask
for instructions to try it. But you can read GalliumHowto in case you
are brave enough."

Based on this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xlib and the little example
code that comes with it I Expose events do work with Xen dom0
with Xorg 1.8 and with the nouveau driver.

<spreads his arms> Don't know yet. Jeremy just pinged me and said he got
on his laptop S3 to suspend working quite well.
