XGL + Compiz on Dapper With ATI

Written by Michael Larabel in Desktop on 23 April 2006 at 01:00 AM EDT. Add A Comment

Kombatant has updated the unofficial ATI Linux Driver Wiki with a short tutorial for running the latest XGL + Compiz 3D desktop effects when using a Radeon setup. The guide is also written for those running Ubuntu's 6.06 Dapper Drake distribution. This eight-step guide is fairly simple, however, it does stress the important points for achieving success with XGL and Compiz when using ATI's proprietary Linux drivers on an Ubuntu Dapper box. The Linux Wiki entry can be read here.
