10.3, ATI X1700, enabled AIGLX, Compiz-manager gives no whitelisted driver found???
OK... previously I was trying to use XGL and was having all sorts of issues, so I read the Compiz Fusion setup deal more closely and saw it reference using AIGLX, read up on that, saw that it only had instructions starting with 10.3, and figured HEY HEY, THE NEW THING! So, I tried it.
Installed the one-click ATI driver:
ATI - openSUSE
So far so good, modified the xorg.conf, as indicated-here is the serverlayout section:
So, then I go onto the next instruction, as indicated here:Code:Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout[all]" InputDevice "Keyboard[0]" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse[1]" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Mouse[3]" "SendCoreEvents" Option "Clone" "off" Option "Xinerama" "off" Option "aiglx" "true" Screen "Screen[0]" EndSection
Compiz Fusion - openSUSE
And what does it give me? This!
No whitelisted driver found? Checking for Xgl? Why Xgl, why is the ATI driver not whitelisted, didn't I specify AIGLX correctly?Code:Checking for Xgl: not present. No whitelisted driver found aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity no /usr/bin/metacity found, exiting

OK... from what I can find now, it appears as if the newer ATI cards aren't yet supported by AIGLX, but that the support is supposedly coming soon. I have no idea why XGL is having so many issues, despite the numerous formats, so for now I may as well wait for the next ATI driver (which I hear is supposed to have AIGLX support).
Is this true then? Any comments from anyone who may have more familiarity with things?
