I also have desktop-effects / compiz running in Feisty, in an Asus L3000 laptop with an ATI Radeon 7500 @ 1400x1050x16. In the live ubuntu 7.10 beta desktop, I noticed that: - direct rendering isn't working by default - the appearance application has the 'normal' setting selected, but no desktop-effects running. - starting compiz manually gave the "/usr/bin/compiz.real (core) - Fatal: No GLXFBConfig for default depth, this isn't going to work" message.
I followed the suggestion regarding the load order of the modules (load dri, then radeon); upon inserting dri, received several messages from the kernel regarding missing symbols (didn't take notes, I'll try to replicate that and update here). - direct rendering is working ok - Trying to start compiz would now gives the "Comparing resolution (1400x1050) to maximum 3D texture size (512): Failed." message. Is it possible that there are 3 bugs here?
