Started this email with a problem with compiz, but think I found the answer. When I would boot into suse level 5, I could no get the start menu or do anything else other than right-click, and log out. I would go to console session, the startx. Logout again, and do startx again, then everything seemed to work as it should. In ~.kde/Autostart/startcompiz.sh, I changed it from #! /bin/sh compiz --replace ccp & emerald --replace & #! /bin/sh emerald --replace & It now works from cold boot without having to logout etc. Without the emarald statement, the windows have no decoration at all, not even the close-minimize-maximize buttons. Also changed the NVIDIA drivers from 9639 to 100.14.11. KDE no longer locks up on exit as it did before and I get about a 2% increase in the glxgears fps noted below. I do have another question related though. Suse 10.2 system is AMD X64 X2 +3200 with Nvidia Gforce 7300 GT AGP graphic card. Doing glxgears, as it opens, I get about 6500 fps. I maximize it to full screen of 1680X1050 and get about 400 fps. Suse 10.3 system is AMD X64 X2 +4600 with Nvidia Gforce 7300 GT PciE X16 graphic card. Doing glxgears, as it opens, I get about 4500 fps. I maximize it to full screen of 1680X1050 and get about 290 fps. With 10.3 system I also tried Geforce 7600GS and got about the same thing. The question is, is it normal for the PCI Express X16 to be so much slower than the AGP8? I mean, the 7300 GT and 7600 GS are not the speediest cards on the block, but I would expect they would be closer thatn that.
