Are you positive that you run Xgl? You should see it as a separate
process in the process list. All I can find is information that AIGLX
needs it:

"Beryl and X servers
With Xorg v7.1, AIGLX has been merged into the standard Xorg server.
However, AIGLX requires support of an extension called
GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap and this extension is not yet widely
supported. Check the [WWW] AIGLX server page to see whether the driver
for your graphics card already supports AIGLX"

The supported cards for AIGLX are here:

The supported cards for Xgl are here:

from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl )
