Just to check, are you generating the packages yourself with --buildpkg Ubuntu/6.10 ?Michael Larabel

This looks like it may be a fglrx bug. I'll try to remember to ask AMD about it next time I talk to them.Michael Larabel

I'm using the ATI fglrx driver for my card, 8.32.5 as suggested by ATI's site.
I have an ATI X1300 Mobility in a Dell Inspiron 6400
Specifically:
fglrx(0): Chipset: "ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 (M52 7149)" (Chipset = 0x7149)
Here's the deal:
If I disable compositing, then the X process consumes 100% cpu and hangs as soon as it tries to draw certain things... KDM hangs immediately... GDM hangs after I put in my password and press enter (or if I click something that brings up a context menu like Session Type).
I have tried all sorts of stuff on the BinaryDrivers page to no avail. I'm beginning to think that my hopes of using the 3D feature of my graphics card in Xubuntu 6.10 are not going to pan out.
Have you figured anything else out, by chance?
