And if not already mentioned, the reason fglrx doesn't, is because ATI's current driver, doesn't detect the xorg-x11-server-Xorg version correctly. So until they get that fixed (or you replace the current xorg driver with an older one), we'll have to wait. http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=609 And for you compiz/beryl users, here is bug filed as well for composite exts... http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=48 Hope this helps (or I am just a dime late/dollar short haha) -- Mike Chambers Madisonville, KY
