    No compiz fusion with ati propietary drivers

    Guys after so much hassle i finally got the ati 8.4 drivers to install on hardy heron..but i cant turn on any effects to utilize compiz fusion..i cant figure out what i m doing wrong ..please help me guys as i m totally lost now .. here are my error read outs

    That first message doesn't look right -- seems like you're running with the software renderer not the HW accelerated 3D driver.

      The driver is not loading. There should be no Mesa in there, but something like this:
      Code:
      display: :0.0  screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT
OpenGL version string: 2.1.7537 Release
      What method did you use to instal the driver? What card is it?

        I have the HD 2600xt sapphire radeon card and i used this guide to help me install the driver (http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubu...allation_Guide).. so how can i fix this mistake of mine ?

            For the record, when I setup Hardy on my machine (HD3870), I used restricted-driver-manager to install and setup the fglrx driver in repository (8.03). It works flawlessly, but I turned Compiz off after a couple weeks after the shiny wore off.

              i have hardy and ati card. try compiz --replace --indirect-rendering or better, install fusion-icon and start it when you login.

                It's not an AGP card is it? I'm still hearing people having problems with those.

                Anyway, this is how I intall the driver (works every time for me):

                -Get the latest driver from the ATI website.
                -Open a terminal and do the following...

                Code:
                sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot dh-make debhelper debconf libstdc++5 dkms linux-headers-$(uname -r) ia32-libs
sudo sh ati-dtiver-installer-8-4-x86.x86_64.run

#let the installer run

cd
sudo aticonfig --initial
sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

#under the "Device" section add the following option:
#Option  "TexturedVideo"  "on"

#reboot
