Hi,
OK, it seems to work now.
All I had to do was following what was said on this page
http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/ATI_with_AIGLX
i.e. edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and adding the lines

Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection

and

Option "AIGLX" "True"

in the Section "ServerLayout".

Then I restarted the Xserver and ran fusion-icon.

So far it hasn't crashed. Great!


Once it is running, I have found it to be rock solid on my Toshiba
laptop. Logging out I do experience hangs.

Now my next question would be:
How do I get different desktop backgrounds on different sides of "the
cube"?.
And how can I give names to the different sides?

I am using the KDE pager and the cube only uses the first of my four
desktops and takes the background image for all four cube sides from
there. I.e. all four sides look the same...


Good question? I have been happy with the same background on all sides.
I'll watch for the answer.
