I'm having the same sort of issue. I have installed the nvidia-glx-185 after purging all the old nvidia packages. I've tested OpenGL using a game... tremulous (www.tremulous.net) but when ever i try to enable compositing it knotify tells me something like "....open compositing has been locked by another application" and turns it off.
btw I have an nvidia 9 series AGP card 1G ram (sorry that all the details are a little fuzzy, I'm not at that computer at the moment) -- [Kubuntu 10.04] Compositing works, but cannot choose desktop effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569591 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
