Hi everyone
i finally got compiz working with my ati radeon 9800 card by using the open source driver, every experiment with fglrx was a failure moreover most of the time they lock me out of X even with metacity or just give no DRI.
With the open source drivers and no compositor they do work great, i have around 3600fps with my card, but if i turn on compiz the fps drop to 1400 with a strange behaviour:
glxgears works full speed for a second, then stops, then again full speed, then stops, then again full speed.
and so on..
Actually it is working in an on-off way, and i don't know how to fix it..
If someone has more experience to give out some hints i'd gladly try
Here is my xorg.conf
Code:
# xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
