Hi All, after ATI discontinued supporting Radeon 9000 I decided to switch the the OSS driver, which I think is more stable and easy to maintain. So far I've got it running with Compiz under AIGLX and Ubuntu.
The problem is that, with this version of Xorg (7.1.1), me and other users reported general slowness and glitches with scrolling. I was thinking to switch to opensuse 10.2 for several reasons, but the most attractive aspect which would make the migration trivial is the presence of Xorg 7.2rc2. This should run updated Mesa and Radeon drivers and, hopefully, make things running little bit better (I hope WAY better). Is this a dream? After a lot of googling I have read a lot of the same problems reported by both Fedora and Ubuntu users, but nobody using opensuse has ever reported complaints. Does somebody with my same configuration (AIGLX, Radeon 9000, Xorg Radeon OSS drivers, Compiz or Beryl) ever found any problem? Particularly with scrolling? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Fabio P.S.: I will try to avoid at best another laptop which makes use of ATI cards, their drivers are crappy and the time you spend on troubleshooting is unacceptable. I'm not blaming you for this, keep the good work up! :-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
