Desktop Effects

[Christopher Stamper]

Thank you very much. I'm quite sure this will work, as I know where to get
the packages! Can't wait!! Thanks!!!

My only concern would be the different, real-time, kernel. Perhaps it may
mess things up. Or maybe make it better. But, if it works for you, I guess
it should work for me!

Thanks again!
