I also have the Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500] video card
as a part of my Dell Inspiron 5100 which has always worked so long as
xorg.conf was setup correctly.  If my understanding is correct, Ubuntu
is disabling compiz on ATI cards using the OPEN SOURCE driver????  The
OPEN SOURCE driver which by the way WORKS, and the PROPRIETARY one
doesn't (thanks to some really asinine back room OEM deals ATI made
awhile back) and Ubuntu disables **working** video cards using an **open
source** driver??

Okay what just happened here, I'm feeling a bit dizzy because this is
definitely **NOT** the way I thought things worked...

PS: If my understanding is incorrect, I apologize now, but really what
am I supposed to think when it appears my WORKING video card is being
blacklisted because....  wait for it..... it's using an open source
driver!
