[hardy] visual effects require proprietary drivers don't needed in gutsy
https://bugs.
Hi, I have the same problem as Marco Ferragina, but using a desktop
computer (not a laptop) with an ATI Radeon 9600 XT Mobility card.
Now using Hardy beta, after clean install it uses free radeon driver and
Compiz by default, all work ok.
But Hardy tries to install fglrx propietary driver when I
This is due to "ati" driver that has been blacklisted for freezes with compiz
in some ati cards.
There is a Bug to enable a whitelist for well working card with "ati" driver
and compiz.
See Bug #201330.

I've spent the last hour trying to find a bugreport I found earlier, I
even commented on (but it won't show in 'bugs you commented on'.
The jist of it was, If you install fglrx driver (probably if you don't
do that via the restricted driver manager which would uninstall the OSS
ones) you get both
Hi again,
In my laptop, and I have checked a few times, activating any kind of
dekstop effect will work without asking anything about proprietary
drivers. And be sure I have fglrx absolutely purged. However, it's true
that my gnome session doesn't start jockey (the new restricted-manager).

well done Paul, you caught the point. Open source drivers should be
preferred by default during visual effects abilitation. Miguel, here we
are talking about visual effects and not about TV-Out. Maybe I will
never use TV-out but always use compiz, so why I should prefer the
proprietary drivers? Any
I can also confirm this. ATi 9800. I prefer to use the open drivers
since video playback is better with them in comparison to the fglrx, and
compiz worked very well with them in the past.
1. ensure compiz is disabled in Appearance.
2. Uninstall fglrx using the restricted drivers manager.
3. resta
OK, I'll detail the procedure I followed yesterday evening:
1) Make sure compiz is deactivated and that metacity is working as it should
2) aptitude purge fglrx-whatever and amdcccle
3) Set up /etc/X11/xorg.conf for xserver-xorg-ati and my Mobility Radeon M10
4) Reboot (just in case...)
5) Log in
The problem it that driver manager suggest the proprietary driver
(fglrx) when the open one work well with compiz. Why I should use
proprietary driver if the open source one work well?

I don't understand what the problem is.. Is it that the driver manager
is suggesting fglrx, or is something not working? Reading the original
bugreport suggests that -ati is working just fine?
