I have an ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 Pro] video card. I was experiencing these issues after upgrading to Karmic 9.10.
* black background under Compiz * windows larger than 1024px were black * full-screen videos in VLC or Totem were black * very choppy (~2 frames per second) full-screen compiz effects (like the desktop cube switcher effect, or the scale effect) The steps in comment #3, to create /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf, fixed the problem for me and returned my system to Jaunty performance levels. -- (Needs KMS) Background and full screen apps don't show up when Normal Visual Effects on (ATI RV100/RV200 chipset) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444139 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xserver-xorg-driver-ati. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
