If you use the new Nvidia Beta drivers and Xorg 7.1, you don't need aiglx (at least not for Compiz/Beryl).

But basically any distro that includes Xorg 7.1 has aiglx included as a module.

Any distro with xorg 7.1 will have aiglx built in. On my system Mandriva 2007 and FC 6 test releases have aixgl built in and it works pretty well with compiz.
