 |
|
Hi!
I'm trying to use KDE desktop effects like window shadows. My ATI Radeon 9800 Pro card works well with fglrx:
| Code: | jaycee@nemesis > !502 > ~ $ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes |
When I enable the composite extension in xorg.conf, direct rendering is still present. Activating window shadows works, too, but after activating them I get graphic errors in nearly every application. Some parts of the windows are completely transparent, some text parts are displayed twices and the fonts look realy ugly. It's unusable! Here is a screenshot: http://familie-clemens.com/jaycee/composite.jpg
I have tried to enable the effects in kcontrol (enabled only shadows, disable all other things and GUI effects, too) and I have tried xcompmgr, too. Both cause the same errors.
Here are the relevant parts of my xorg.conf:

| the 8.40 don't work well with xcomposite for what i know. you'd best wait for next month's release and try with that or try out the opensource drivers, which should be quite mature for your board. |
