It works." - I always give a shot for people to stand and defend themselves, so please enlighten a poor dumb user on how to achieve that with RC1. Let me be clear: The rainbow effect is gone since 10.9, but the screen tearing when an application has a notification icon breaks everything, I find it hard to miss... Could you confirm you didn't had this issue? I'm sure a lot of people are interested in the magic recipe you used.

One of the references you provided in the GNOME bugzilla entry was a bug report I opened. I can give you the contact of John Bridgeman (though his focus is on the open source driver) and he might be able to help or point to someone who can help ("no promisses" though). About the RC1 tests, unless you had something which isn't really available for the general population, I find it hard to believe it worked, because it didn't worked for a few people I know with openSUSE, and there's lots of reports from other distros as well (Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Arch, ...). And I generally don't believe much in miracles :) Lets see if the 'high powers' can fix this, it's really annoying. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Could you please do an ls -lR in these directories? They are deprecated and should not be used any more. ATI should be told so.

I agree that ATI should know they're deprecated, but they haven't been responding to any of my emails or bug requests. Can someone at Novell get in touch with them and let them know? (But in the meantime, anyone using the ATI Catalyst driver needs this fix since ATI uses those folders but incorrectly never adds those paths to its known paths in the conf, so it crashes) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(But in the meantime, anyone using the ATI Catalyst driver needs this fix since ATI uses those folders but incorrectly never adds those paths to its known paths in the conf, so it crashes)

The issue was that openSUSE removed the paths from /etc/ld.so.conf, and it has been me who forgot to tell Sebastian about this change, so he could adjust the packages accordingly in time, i.e. introduce a /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ati-fglrxG02.conf with the paths inside. He already did this meanwhile in git: commit 15cc06ab661445fa13f1f1c43d96ff42a25d5100 Author: Sebastian Siebert Date: Sun Nov 20 18:01:55 2011 +0100 SUSE: add search path for openSUSE 12.1 and some minor fixes - openSUSE 12.1: - add search path for dynamic libraries: /usr/X11R6/lib{,64} - change mode bits 644 => 755 for /usr/lib/* - add unsupported openSUSE 12.2 Unfortunately the current driver 11.12 does not include this change yet.

I believe we've got the solution to this issue. The below steps appear to give proper direct rendering with opengl and catalyst:

1. copy/paste the following code and save as /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ati-fglrx.conf

[CODE] # created by atiupgrade - Tue Jan 3 13:36:31 PST 2012 # delete this file when it's not needed anymmore /usr/X11R6/lib64 /usr/X11R6/lib [/CODE]

I only have /usr/X11R6/lib (32bit system)

2. run these commands as root: [CODE]/sbin/ldconfig /usr/lib64/fglrx/switchlibglx amd /usr/lib64/fglrx/switchlibGL amd [/CODE]

3. reboot

/usr/lib/fglrx/switchlibGL /usr/lib/fglrx/switchlibglx on 32bit systems accordingly. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Tried the suggestions from comment #15 desperate as I am, but they don't fix anything. Gnome shell is still unstable. I guess two more weeks in fallback mode.

Stefan, please post your results here: http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/applications/4705... and let the forums user please_try_again help you.
