Read for details fi fi It's not that simple unfortunately: * It's not clear that only ati needs this, some other driver probably like XAANoOffscreenPixmaps too. * Also ati may be too vague here, you may just be talking about the radeon submodule. But ati also contain some other submodules. * The server can auto-detect the driver nowadays, most future xorg.conf will have no Driver line at all. * XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps is just a hack to improve Compiz while decreasing other stuff performance. I am not sure recommending it that much would be a good idea in the end. * EXA is the way to go, XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps should only be a temporary workaround for the time where EXA is not perfect (which may be too long howerver).

I managed to defrost some applications by resizing them. Bigger apps especially maximized ones appears to work normally. The biggest problem is with very small windows. I tested also kde4. There is littlebit better but still unusable. I'm almost certain that problem is the indirect pcbuf to texture rednering, because it DRI pixbuf to texture is not supported by fglrx. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
