it does not support 2d nor 3d acceleration yet. that means compiz/beryl/whatever is impossible right now.
opensource radeon driver (xf86-video-ati) started supporting r500/r600 cards recently, and it *might* work with 2d acceleration for you.
don't hope for aiglx in radeonhd for a couple of months. the 2d acceleration isn't even there yet.
