What method to configure the Ati drver has used You?
Sometimes, can coexist in xorg.conf the 2 drivers, the radeonhd and the fglrx. You has verfified that?
I prefer to install by compilation executing as "su" "sh ati-driver-installer-9.2-x86.x86_64.run", and the initial configuration with the "aticonfig" tool.

Juan, Thanks for your reply. I always install the same way: (1) make sure the 'kernel-source' package is installed, if not, then install it (as root): zypper in kernel-source (2) Build the fglrx rpm from the install package. i586: sh ati-driver-installer-8-9-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg SuSE/SUSE110-IA32 x86_64 sh ati-driver-installer-8-9-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg SuSE/SUSE110-AMD64 SuSE/SUSE110-AMD64 (3) make a copy of your current xorg.conf so sax2 won't screw it up cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /tmp/xorg.conf ************************************************ ** if not in runlevel 3, go to runlevel 3 now ** ************************************************ (4) (as root for all remaining commands) init 3 (5) Removing old fglrx driver rpm -e $(rpm -qa | grep fglrx) (6) Preparing the kernel source (not 100% necessary, but proper) cd /usr/src/linux make mrproper make cloneconfig > /dev/null 2>&1 make modules_prepare make clean (7) Install the new fglrx rpm you created, example: rpm -Uvh fglrx64_7_1_0_SUSE110-8.532-1.x86_64.rpm (8) Initialize your xorg.conf for the new driver: aticonfig --initial (9) Add options to the end of /etc/X11/xorg.conf to enable compiz: Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "true" Option "DAMAGE" "true" EndSection The Damage extension allows a client to be notified whenever something is drawn to a window. This feature is useful for VNC servers, for screen magnifiers, and for clients using the Composite extension to update the screen.
