    Default Smooth 2d on HD 2x00??

    Hi, I have a toshiba A200-1M8 laptop, with the ATI HD2600 mobility...
    I use Ubuntu gutsy, and I've installed the fglrx 8.41.7 driver...
    opengl seems to work fine (well i just ran warcraft3 and checked the fps) but 2d is problematic... when moving a window, it leaves trails on the background ones...
    resizing has a similar effect too...
    I haven't found any solution for this...so I assume it's an 8.41.7 bug...
    Is there any other driver that works for the 2k series? at least the 2d part...I can live with rebooting to windows to play a game, but those trails everywhere are just annoying...
    Unfortunately these days I haven't got the time to experiment with the drivers

    Yeah... precisely... (didn't make out that thing in the right corner though)

    Guess I'll give radeonhd a try when I have the time...
    Got to fix suspend/hibernate too... some sound stuff...hotkeys... damn those companies for not supporting linux...
