No joy. Same result. After installing 0.6.0, I can get gnome-xgl-switch --enable-xgl to work. I have disabled window translucency, and I have followed both
http://en.opensuse.org/Compiz-Fusion, and http://linux.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/opensuse-103-running-compiz-fusion-usi...
Install ati 8.40 drivers. Remove official ati drivers and ati repository and click here to install the version that is supposed to work on most ATI hardware:
Done and built from the latest ATI release: [root Rankin-P35a/home/david] # rpm -qa | grep fgl ati-fglrxG01-kmp-default-8.41.7_2.6.22.5_30-1.1 x11-video-fglrxG01-8.41.7-5.1

Do not run sax2 after installation.
Check if symlink to Xgl is created properly:
ll /usr/bin/X lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Oct 21 23:02 /usr/bin/X -> /usr/bin/Xgl
If it is not created, create it.
Currently it points to: [root Rankin-P35a/home/david] # l /usr/bin/X lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2007-10-12 02:38 /usr/bin/X -> /var/X11R6/bin/X* Here is where I think there is a problem. What am I supposed to do with the following link? [root Rankin-P35a/home/david] # l /var/X11R6/bin/X lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2007-10-22 01:45 /var/X11R6/bin/X -> /usr/bin/Xorg* Is that the way it is supposed to be? If that is the case, shouldn't I link /usr/bin/Xgl to /var/X11R6/Bin/X? If we link to /usr/bin/Xgl to /usr/bin/X wouldn't that leave the broken link of /usr/bin/Xorg to /var/X11R6/bin/X hangin around that could cause problems? Really confusing link scheme. Your help is appreciated.
Remove any compiz autostart scripts and reboot.
Cheers
