Forget Xgl, use AIGLX. It's supported by the free radeon driver which is part of SUSE, also works here in 10.2 with berryl (Radeon 9600 mobility). Remove the proprietary fglrx driver. -- Machs gut | http://www.iivs.de/schwinde/buerger/tremmel/ | http://packman.links2linux.de/ Manfred | http://www.knightsoft-net.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Okay, sounds good ;-) How to get these? (loved berryl more from the start anyway, but did and still do not know how to get it.. ;-(?) - -- Have a nice day, M9. Now, is the only time that exists.

Offcourse i've looked at these pages: http://en.opensuse.org/Beryl and also followed the links, (on aiglx is not much to find).. but there is also spoken about the proprietary driver.. would berryl work ok with the proprietary driver?

It's not much to do, to get aiglx to work. It's simply a little change in the xorg.conf http://de.opensuse.org/AIGLX#Aktivieren_von_AIGLX (sorry, seems to be no english translation).
but there is also spoken about the proprietary driver.. would berryl work ok with the proprietary driver? (compiz does not..:-( )
When compiz doesn't work, berryl doesn't, too. Both use the same base. The proprietary ati driver has no aiglx support, when xgl doesn't work, too, you can forget it. Why using proprietary driver, when the free one works better? If you do understand a little bit german, take a look at http://www.iiv.de/schwinde/buerger/tremmel/suse_m6842nw.html#31 -- Machs gut | http://www.iivs.de/schwinde/buerger/tremmel/ | http://packman.links2linux.de/ Manfred | http://www.knightsoft-net.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

xdm is crippled, one can only log out of a session. This won't be fixed. All the efforts to get the radeon driver to start 'X' in 3D acceleration fail. ;-( 2D works... I do not know how to get 3D acceleration accomplished. Adding the suggested lines to xorg.conf, cause the xserver to not start, and return to tty1. sax2 recovers a cmo cmc monitor, which does not exist on this system, but can easily be corrected to the right monitor: Videoseven. Offcourse it overwrites xorg.conf, and again, i am were i started..... Reading the wiki shows me there's no 3d desktop for everybody, helas. Shame i belong to the group that is shut out.. ;-) - -- Have a nice day, M9. Now, is the only time that exists.

Reinstall all xorg and mesa packages.

I had this problem, too. It was not possible to load the readon.ko driver. The solutions was to remove fglrx.ko which was still there after uninstalling the fglrx rpm. Compiz works fine after that, except of white frames around all unframed windows (tooltips, menus, kicker).

I did that, took the newest ones, but forgot to update sax, so it could not read the info correctly ;-( Config would be used after restart.. After restart no 'X' server wse... no tty also... ctrl+alt-backspace does not take me back to tty1.. ctrl+alt-del does restart the box though...
I had this problem, too. It was not possible to load the readon.ko driver. The solutions was to remove fglrx.ko which was still there after uninstalling the fglrx rpm.
At that point the radeon driver did have 3D support, but after enabling compiz, it didn't anymore, only 2D, and verry slow..
Compiz works fine after that, except of white frames around all unframed windows (tooltips, menus, kicker).
I wished i could say the same.... I am not able to get visual on 10.2... I am able to alter everything from 10.3, but I am out of knowledge at this point.... Does anyone know what log to check to find the cause
Cheers Herbert
