Anyone successful with this or a similar configurations?
Thank you,

Yes, 10.3, compiz and ATI Mobility Radeon 9700. You need to use the 8.43 driver, the 8.44 driver has resolution problems, but does fix other bugs. Install compiz, but DO NOT install "compiz-manager". Install and use fusion-icon to start compiz. If you can't find the 8.43 driver mail me privately and I'll provide you with a link to download the 10.3 driver (14Meg). I'd post it globally, but I only have 128k upstream at home. Read the install instructions and follow them: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Main_Page. You will need to alter a couple of links to libraries to get around a SONAME driver bug, that is fixed in the 8.44 driver, but as I said above the 8.44 driver has resolution problems. You need to configure your libGL and LibIndirectGL library links as follows: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2007-12-28 16:32 /usr/lib/libGL.so -> libGL.so.1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2008-01-18 11:49 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 2008-01-18 11:49 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 -> /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 391344 2007-09-21 20:34 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.sav -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 440676 2007-09-21 20:34 /usr/lib/libIndirectGL.so.1.2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2007-11-09 16:19 /usr/lib/libIndirectGL.so.1.sav -> libIndirectGL.so.1.2 After you install the 8.43 driver, make sure fglrx loads on boot. (see the instructions on whitelisting the driver) Your /etc/X11/xorg.conf will look similar to the following.

Due to the SONAME bug, after you are done with a kde session, you should shutdown or risk a lockup trying to start another session by logging in. You will also have to fix the links to libGL after each software update where SuSEConfig is run. Here is a small script to do it. Just run as root after an update and if the libs need fixing, choose "y".
