While Compiz is enabled, I get intermittent yellow artifacts, some of which are persistent until I reload the window manager.
I've tried the PAE kernel, as it installed by default, and the latest Catalyst 8.6 driver.
Anyone else experience this?
For some reason openSUSE 11 installed the pae kernel on both my laptop and my desktop, 10.3 was running the default kernel. Anyways my laptop has a ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 and I have the the same driver version as you installed: ati-fglrxG01-kmp-pae-8.493_2.6.25.5_1.1-2.1 x11-video-fglrxG01-8.493-7.1 The only problem I have had was, aticonfig --initial messed up my xorg.conf (had to remake it by hand) and my system locked up once but that is it. Maybe it is something with the ATI driver and Compiz because (I do not intend to start a flame war or anything) I am using KDE4 and Kwin's compositing features and I don't have this problem. -- "We must plan for freedom, and not only for security, if for no other reason than only freedom can make security more secure."
