The Bug is that the install left different versions of the libraries in
different places. Specifically, the file:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 391344 2007-09-21 20:34 libGL.so.1.2*
was left in /usr/lib and was conflicting with the new library in
02:43 Rankin-P35a~/linux/usr/lib> l /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2007-10-25 01:20 /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
-> libGL.so.1*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2007-10-25 01:20 /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1
-> libGL.so.1.2*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 679655 2007-10-25 01:18 /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2*
The solution was to move the old libGL.so.1.2 and replace it with a
link to /usr/X11r6/libGL.so.1.2
Now fgl_glxgears and fglrxinfo will work as they should. However after
gnome-xgl-switch --enable-xgl and reboot, compiz is non-operational on
the laptop. The desktop appears, the mouse will move, but that is it,
the rest is DOA. ctrl+alt+backspace kills X but results in the frozen
black sax screen from hell.
I don't get it. 3D is blazing after correcting the library conflict,
but still no compiz. It took less than 5 minutes on my box with the
nvidia card, but still no joy here.
