Same problem here with ati 9200SE card. Worked very well in ubuntu
9.04. I have changed to 16 bit colour to get wallpaper background to
show while using compiz, by using a manual edit to xorg.conf. The
important bits of that are here:-
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
HorizSync 30-80
VertRefresh 50-75
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Modes "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768"
"832x624" "800x600" "720x400" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
