Xgl + compiz Installation

I have just found the best User Interface out! Gnome with Xgl+compiz support.

People who look at Vista and go, wow, I love the way it does 3D now (it only does one thing in 3D, nothing else) can now look at Linux and see a HUGE assortment of 3D funky visualisations and stick Vista up Microsoft's whoohah!

I had an issue with Xgl + compiz though, when I hit Shift+Backspace it would kill the X server. I found this site which gives you an xmodmap command to execute and it works perfectly (http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/1000095).
