A few days back while i was surfing the net, i happened to found a site saying that beryl, the exotic eye candy for Linux distros, will no longer be developed but be supported. instead, Compiz and Beryl have been re-merged and taken the name Compiz Fusion .
Since then i was a bit curious about the outcome of the decision. Because even though Beryl is more eye-soothing but there is still something for Compiz to contribute in creating a more lucrative Linux desktop. My guess is somehow correct. Recently Compiz Fusion 0.5.2 has been released with some stunning effects that we have never seen before. i googled for binary package for FC6. but unfortunately i found nothing. Binary distributions i have found so far, are all for FC7, Ubuntu, SUSE etc. in spite of that, i have found some binaries of Compiz Fusion working smoothly on FC6. These RPM files can be downloaded from the following link:

I have just downloaded all the RPM files from here(You don’t need to download devel or debug files if you are not doing development work with compiz fusion) and installed them all. Then I started Compiz Fusion by going to start menu->system->Compiz Fusion Icon and the effects are ready to be served.
I have found Compiz Fusion working very smoothly in both KDE and GNOME using these RPMs.
