No. Changelog sent from apt-listchanges:

  • Steve Kowalik <stevenk@ubuntu.com> Sat, 8 Sep 2007 22:50:10 +1000

xserver-xgl (1:1.1.99.1~git20070727-0ubuntu2) gutsy; urgency=low

  • debian/xserver-xgl-notification.update-notifier + Inform users that we start Xgl automatically, so previously set up Xgl sessions may not work correctly.
  • Remove old Xsession.d file on install, if it hasn't been modified (LP: #136962). New Xsession.d file won't fall over after xserver-xgl is uninstalled.
  • debian/00-xserver-xgl_start-server + Split into a wrapper script debian/Xgl-session, and install this into /usr/bin and a much smaller debian/98-xserver-xgl_start-server file. + Install Xsession file to 98-xserver-xgl_start-server, so that it's at the top of the $STARTUP stack instead of starting Xgl first in the Xsession.d process. Fixes startup for those who manually installed the fglrx drivers (and possibly others).
  • Add a killswitch to disable Xgl on a per-user basis. If the file ~/.config/xserver-xgl/disable exists, Xgl will not be automatically started. Documented in README.Debian. (LP: #136878)

> But there is no xgl running.

Default for me:
ps x|grep -i xgl

 4079 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep -i xgl
 8342 ?        SL   193:06 Xgl -accel xv:pbuffer -accel glx:pbuffer :1
-nolisten tcp -fullscreen -br +xinerama

I have an ATi card, maybe that makes a difference.
