Xgl+fglrx+gdm trouble

I've just updated to SuSE 10.1 and is quite happy about the new version (well,
if the new package manager system is disregarded). I tested out Xgl with
Compiz which I found to be quite useful (and a jawdropper :D) so I decided to
make the installation permanent. In order to get it to work on my Thinkpad
T43p I changed from kdm into gdm and adjusted /etc/opt/gnome/gdm/gdm.conf so
that:

  1=Standard
  command=/usr/X11R6/bin/Xgl -audit 0  -br

The first line was to avoid a bug in the ATI driver. This works except that
gdm _always_ hangs on the login prompt unless i run "sax2 -r -m 0=fglrx"
prior to starting xdm/gdm.

Any ideas on how to resolve this?
