That should fix it. Do not remove libIndirectgl.so.1.2 The symlink is recreated when yast/smart/updates run and add new files to the system. Clark

System: Dell Inspiron E1505 Display: ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 OS: openSuSE 10.3 Driver: fglrx 8.40.4

I updated and Compiz is completely hosed. I went through my normal cycle of uninstalling fusion-icon, compiz*, xgl, flgrx driver, and reinstalled. I keep getting errors such as:

"no GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap" "no Composite extension"

I've had to rely on the fglrx 8.40.4 driver as all newer versions result in horrid performance.

Unless anyone has some good info, I'm preparing to wipe the partition and reinstall the OS.

Thank you,

I'll repeat once again :)

Update kernel, install 1-click drivers, and follow the instructions posted on the link that was given before(disable Xgl, add couple of things to xorg.conf), you possibly cannot go wrong.

With compiz*-0.7.4 you can launch it using fusion-icon, compiz --replace ccp or compiz --replace core glib gconf. No other environment variable or option is required.

Cheers

I have done exactly as you describe. I haven't tested with 7.4 yet, but the command line I posted is/was required to start compiz on my box at least through 7.2 due to ATI driver issues.(8.47 is the current fglrx driver version) I'll pair down line 36 of /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/FusionIcon/data.py which currently reads: compiz_args = ['--replace', '--sm-disable', '--ignore-desktop-hints', '--no-libgl-fallback', '--indirect-rendering', 'ccp'] to see how few arguments are needed now for a certain compiz start.

Confirmed: Line 36 of /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/FusionIcon/data.py restored to: compiz_args = ['--replace', '--sm-disable', '--ignore-desktop-hints', 'ccp'] and compiz still starts as it should.
