Hi David,

Well, I'm not going to be able to provide you with much help because I'm 
basically writing to say that "it can be done" but not with much info.  :/

I did get Compiz running on an Ubuntu 8.04 setup with an ATI Radeon 9550 
card using the radeon driver.  And the performance was quite good (Pentium 
4 Dell desktop with 512MB RAM as the terminal)!  However it was 
uninteresting to me because that driver or card only seems to support a 
max resolution of 2048 in either direction for 3D and I have a dual 
1600x1200 monitor setup for a grand total resolution of 3200x1200.  I'd 
rather have the pixels than the eye candy.  :)

I did have to hack on the /usr/bin/compiz wrapper to get Compiz to start 
and it still whined when it started, but I promise that it did work.  Some 
of the things I remember having to do were basically to turn off the 
section about checking for whether the X driver is whitelisted, because it 
assumes that the X log is on the local system.  I think maybe the xdpyinfo 
command that checks for the Composite extension also didn't work and I 
needed to turn off that section.

HTH,
Jason
