    If yes from which repository did you install 7.8
    Or did you compile from source.
    openSUSE 11, Compiz installed from CyberOrg's repository.

    Thank's a lot

    If the Mandriva QA are on it I'm optimistic that they will find
    a solution

    Since you are the one working on this ticket don't forget to mention

    that if you try XGL instead of AIGLX for some unknown reason the system switch to the radeonHD driver (without changing xorg.conf ????) I know I have checked!

    I know it's sound weird but that's what it does

    this bug is reproducible with mandriva 2008.1 and 2009 cooker and that kde 4.1 with 2009 cooker is extremely slow and unresponsive! this bug is reproducibles with the 8.8 and 8.9 driver.

    Ok here an update

    I tested the 8.7 8.8 8.9 driver on two machine one with a hd3780 and hd 2600 pro AGP

    Both system are running Mandriva Linux 2008.1

    with the 8.7 driver compiz work great but the log out bug is present (X crash)
    with 8.8 and 8.9 no compiz KDE 4.1 is also extremely slow

    In all case 3D acceleration work fine without Compiz.

    So what change in the 8.8 and 8.9 driver that could cause this issue.

    PS: xorg.conf is exactly the same whit all those version

    Yes the libGL.so.1 link to libGL.so.1.2

    to the TheIcebreaker I'm running mandriva 2008.1 and fglrx usually work really well.

    I'm going to revert to the 8.8 and 8.7 driver to see which one work with compiz (I never tested the 8.8 driver) Then I will try to compare both Xorg.conf to see if anything is change.

    I really don't know how to fix this one
    Maybe it related to the fact that I have a hd2600 agp card?
    Long shot -

    ls -l /usr/lib/xorg/

    and make sure that the libGL.so.1 symlink points to libGL.so.1.2

    I was getting a similar problem. Compiz worked, however as soon as I did anything full screen it crashed, then kept crashing.

    I tried running:
    Code:
    sudo aticonfig --set-pcs-str="DDX,EnableRandr12,TRUE"
    As listed in the article on the driver and it worked fine after that.

    Good luck,

    Bas.
