Aha: jockey-gtk launches the prop.driver activation. I didn't know that.
Thanks.

The relevant jockey file is probably
/usr/share/jockey/handlers/fglrx.py . That file contains the relevant
key words 'fglrx' and 'glx'. And it does *not* contain a
Screen-Default-Depth-24 line: exactly the behaviour we see.

Oh, and BTW: it writes contain the Composite-0-section. Is there a
reason for Composite-0 in xorg.conf? Because that blocks Compiz, and I
have to remove it manually to get Compiz running.

I had a look at Ubuntu 7.10, but jockey does not exist there. Is
jockey new since Ubuntu 8.04?

As a reference, I had a look at the other jockey handlers:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cd /usr/share/jockey/handlers

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/share/jockey/handlers$ grep -i Screen *py
nvidia.py:        self.xorg_conf.getSections('Screen')[0].defaultdepth = 24
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/share/jockey/handlers$


So the nvidia.py handler does write the line Screen-DefaultDepth-24:

    def enable_config_hook(self):
        # compiz does not work otherwise
        self.xorg_conf.getSections('Screen')[0].defaultdepth = 24


Interesting. Maybe we can just 'transplant' that code into our
fglrx.py? I'll try that and let you know.
