I am contemplating switching to the open-source drivers. I own an Radeon 4850 and now that EXA/Xv for R600/R700 is merged to master it sounds pretty interesting.
Before I go and try to see if I manage to get that thing compiled I wanted to ask if Compiz works yet with the oss drivers? The X.Org wiki pages on the one hand list 3d status "wip" yet in the program page Compiz is set as "platinum" for R700. So anyone get first hand experience how well the (most) recent (svn) versions work with compiz.
Oh and I don't care about any other 3d use. I play my occasional round of Nexuiz but that can wait. Compiz though I don't want to miss as some features like the expose-style window view or the ability to quickly drag windows to different workspaces just stuck with me.
