Devs, I cloned, built and installed the latest snapshot of the driver on my toshiba P205D laptop and experienced two primary problems. (1) performance was way down, moving windows you could see the vertical sides of each window being drawn. I haven't that in years. (2) Starting compiz resulted in the "white screen of death." Compiz started fine and I could rotate the cube (slowly), but the desktop was completely white. I have only seen that once before on an nvidia card when I forgot to reinstall the nvidia drivers after kernel update. Typing "Alt+F2; kwin --replace & " in the blind restored kwin. I preserved the Xorg.0.log for reference at: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/linux/radeonhd/Xorg.0.log-whitecompiz-sl... A brief look at the log showed that aiglx failed to load. My xorg config (relevant sections) was: Section "Device" BoardName "RS690M" Driver "radeonhd" Identifier "Device[0]" Option "GARTSize" "256" Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" VendorName "ATI" EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout[all]" InputDevice "Keyboard[0]" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse[1]" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Mouse[3]" "SendCoreEvents" Option "AIGLX" "True" Option "Clone" "off" Option "Xinerama" "off" Screen 0 "Screen[0]" 0 0 EndSection Section "DRI" Group "video" Mode 0660 EndSection Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "true" Option "DAMAGE" "true" EndSection I tried both with and without "Option DRI On". It made no difference. Downgrading to the Archlinux supplied xf86-video-radeonhd 1.2.5-1, returned performance back to where it was. For comparison, I have the Xorg.0.log for 1.2.5-1 at: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/linux/radeonhd/Xorg.0.log-1.2.5-1 and the complete xorg.conf at: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/linux/radeonhd/xorg.conf.radeonhd I don't mind doing additional testing or trying patches, additional xorg options, whatever. Just let me know what I can do to help. (Note, I'm not a programmer though, so no code rewrite requests ;-) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
