Pauli, Thanks for the help.

After removing that package, I was back to the blackscreen problem (e.g. display showing up only on the external monitor), but my visual effects (compiz) were indeed working! > The initial black screen problem looks like kernel modesetting bug. So > workaround would be booting with radeon.modeset=0 to use old UMS driver. This workaround fixed the blackscreen problem! However, compiz doesn't seem to play nicely with the old driver: --- $ compiz WARNING: Application calling GLX 1.3 function "glXCreatePixmap" when GLX 1.3 is not supported! This is an application bug! ^X^CWARNING: Application calling GLX 1.3 function "glXDestroyPixmap" when GLX 1.3 is not supported! This is an application bug! --- The visual result is that the far right section of the display area (effecting about 2/3 the screen of one of my monitors) wasn't displaying properly... a colorful lack of refreshing and some blackness. So it seems that at the moment, I can't have my cake (compiz) and eat it too (on dual monitors). -- [Lucid alpha2] ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 not displaying on LVDS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/522394 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
