Well make sure everything is proper by running glxinfo and glxgears. (and make sure you don't have Mesa running by accident).damn it, I just installed it on Ubuntu 7.04 and Quake4 now freezes after playing for about 30 seconds... FUCK
Please some one tell me that if I upgrade to gutsy the it wont crash.
Oh can some one help me out and tell me where the file to weight list the driver for compiz is, please
As for gutsy, I haven't tested it, though I will in the next couple days.
EDIT: If you have the Composite extension disabled in your xorg.conf in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, make sure you re-enable it.
EDIT2: Compiz is now successfully running without a hitch. AIGLX is here to stay, and it's stable on my setup. The only thing I need to fix is my conky window which is now out of alignment for some odd reason. Nothing a little config file tweaking can't fix.

8.42.3 Tested on Slackware 12 + Compiz Fusion + Radeon 9600.
1) AIGLX is a TOTAL DELUSION. The fps is less than XGL. Firefox scrolling seems like a 286 dir command (on dos).
Radeon open source driver is better!
2) Xmame in opengl mode is worst than with radeon open source driver.
Why did we wait for so much time?
Why did we believe to ATI?
Why -I- bought an ATI card?

Well, package building fails on x86_64 Ubuntu Gutsy.
Generating package: Ubuntu/gutsy
Package build failed!
Package build utility output:
...
find: usr/X11R6/lib: No such file or directory
...
cp: cannot stat `./usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri': No such file or directory
dh_install: command returned error code 256
make: *** [binary] Error 1
Seems to be missing the usr/X11R6/lib directory; there's only a usr/X11R6/lib64 directory. Anyone get this thing to build on an x86_64 system under Gutsy?

I need some help with Compiz.
I installed the new driver with
Then added (compiz)Code:sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8.42.3-x86.x86_64.run
and (xorg.conf)Code:# Driver whitelist WHITELIST="fglrx nvidia intel ati radeon i810"
I'm running Gutsy with ATI Mobility Radeon X1400. When I try to enable Compiz there's a white-screen.Code:Section "Module" Load "glx" EndSection Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "1" EndSection Section "ServerFlags" Option "AIGLX" "on" EndSection
Code:fglrxinfo display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect OpenGL version string: 1.4 (2.1 Mesa 7.0.1)

I take it you're using Ubuntu? use --buildpkg Ubuntu/7.10 and not running the driver from its GUI installer.
Make sure to block fglrx in the restricted drivers too.

That's a known issue on the part of the package maintainer for Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon. A new packaging script for Ubuntu is available and I'll see if I still have it in my inbox.Well, package building fails on x86_64 Ubuntu Gutsy.

Buildpkg worked fine on my 32bit system. I haven't tested the driver yet because I am at school.
I used ssh to do buildpkg and install.
