Synopsis:
Compiz was running great under xorg 7.2. I upgraded to xorg 7.3 now
compiz will not start no matter what. This thread picks up from "Yast
Software Mgmt. Slower, and Slower and Slower" that I hijacked from myself.

Ben,
(New thread) I have also included additional detail at the bottom that
may help. I have tried compiz with both the ATI 8.42.3 driver via Yast
from www2.ati.com and with the 8.42 driver generated from the driver
download - same result with each. Here are the 7.3 rpms installed:

Recall under 7.2, we had to make the following library link changes for
compiz to work:
(1) ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2
(2) mv /usr/lib/libIndirectGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libIndirectGL.so.1.sav
I have made and confirmed the changes:

My xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log are available as follows:

Xorg.0.log:

After installing 7.3 I went ahead and rebuilt and reinstalled the 8.42
driver. Both from the downloaded script and also via Yast. fglrx loads
fine and gives the same good (for my laptop) frame rates with glxgears
and fgl_glxgears in both cases:
14:07 rankin-p35a~> glxgears
13088 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2617.559 FPS
13216 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2642.825 FPS
14:08 rankin-p35a~> fgl_glxgears
Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer
2758 frames in 5.0 seconds = 551.600 FPS
2827 frames in 5.0 seconds = 565.400 FPS
While trying to start compiz with the command line, I get the following
error:
compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp
--indirect-rendering --no-libgl-fallback
compiz (core) - Fatal: GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0
That is the scenario Ben. Your wisdom and magic is awaited anxiously.
