Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
When turning on desktop effects ('normal' or 'extra') the appearance
tool pops up a message box informing me that "nvidia hardware not
available" when I am using an ATI Radeon Xpress 200 card with ATI's
proprietary driver, making the message completely redundant and
potentially confusing/scary for new users (the image displayed in the
box is for errors). After clicking OK on the message Compiz Fusion
starts up fine, giving the usual Use Previous/Keep Settings box.
I am using the fglrx driver xorg-driver-fglrx 7.1.0-8.37.6+2.6.22.2-9.7,
installed with restricted manager and Xgl (xserver-xgl
7.2.0.git.20070224-0ubuntu) set up using this guide:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl (using "method
B"). gnome-control-center version is 1:2.19.6-0ubuntu2.
** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
