Public bug reported: I have been using the open source driver for my ATI Radeon Xpress 1150 ever since I installed Intrepid around the start of October and have been able to use compiz desktop effects just fine. Yesterday (27/10) I tried installing the fglrx driver using jockey-gtk. It installed ok, but killed my suspend and hibernate functions, so I disabled it. When I logged into my computer today, I had no compiz. I tried to enable it in gnome-appearance-properties, but it only offered me the fglrx driver that I cannot use without losing function on my laptop. It said that it could not enable desktop effects when I rejected the fglrx driver.
This is a major issue, as the fglrx driver, according to ATI themselves and as experienced by myself, disrupts suspend and hibernate. Will try rolling jockey-gtk back to an earlier version and post results. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Cannot enable compiz using open source driver for ATI Radeon in Intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290161 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
