I have a MacBook Pro that I have successfully installed openSUSE 10.2
with
kernel 2.6.22.1-399. I would like to get Compiz fusion working on it.

The MacBook Pro has an ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 with fglrx 8.39.4.

I tried following these instructions (as sparse as they are) but they
didn't
work:

I even had KDE transparency turned off


I looked into compiz a while back. Is Xgl still used? Is
gnome-xgl-switch still used?

Anyone get compiz/beryl/compiz fusion working on any ATI gfx card?


Try this http://en.opensuse.org/Beryl the settings/config for Beryl,
Compiz and Compiz-Fusion should all be identical.
Also there a new official Compiz-Fusion forum you can search
http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/index.php



Looks like opensuse.org is down.I'll try again in a bit.

I tried that site and it looked to be all about Beryl. I couldn't find any
generic settings.

When I run "compiz --replace ccp &" I get this error:

compiz: No GLXFBConfig for default depth, this isn't going to work.
compiz: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz: No manageable screens found on display :0.0

I have no idea how to fix this. Does anyone?

i tried compiz-fusion it was to unstable if i were you i would go for beryl
.
