We have downgraded xorg to 7.2 and install the fglrx 8.43 drivers and compiz is
working again. However the SONAME problem is still with us. The config for
getting compiz to work remains the same requiring altering libGL and
libIndirect. The following script is needed each time suseConfig is run (a
pain, but better than entering it manually every time:
#!/bin/bash
echo -e "\n *** /usr/lib/libGL Config \n"
ls -al /usr/lib/libGL.so*
echo -e "\n *** /usr/lib/libIndirect Config \n"
ls -al /usr/lib/libIn*
echo -e '\n'
read -p "Alter libGL and libIndirect to fix SONAME? [y/n]: " key
echo -e "\n"
if [ "$key" = "y" ]; then
thepwd=`pwd`
cd /usr/lib
unlink libGL.so.1
unlink libGL.so.1.2
ln -s libGL.so.1.2 libGL.so.1
ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2 libGL.so.1.2
if [ -h libIndirectGL.so.1 ]; then
unlink libIndirectGL.so.1
fi
cd $thepwd
echo -e "\n *** /usr/lib/libGL Config \n"
ls -al /usr/lib/libGL.so*
echo -e "\n *** /usr/lib/libIndirect Config \n"
ls -al /usr/lib/libIn*
tail -n24 /etc/X11/xorg.conf
else
echo -e "libGL and libIndirect remain UNCHANGED \n"
fi
After adjusting the libraries, compiz works just fine if started with
fusion-icon. (A slight pain, but benefit in it keeps all the taskbar icons from
being scattered all over multiple desktops)
The driver lock issue remains the exact same. However, with the 8.43 driver
I can set runlevel 5 as default in inittab and boot to the kdm menu and then
launch kde or kde/compiz. You can NOT log out without the display hardlocking
the system, but you can shutdown cleanly if you remember to "shutdown" all
session and never "logout" of a session. Hopefully this will be fixed with the
8.44 driver.
Where are we on this issue? Can I send you anything else?? Keep up th
egreat work, we are getting there. Thanks!
