    Compiz-Fusion in OpenSuse 11.1

    Hi,
    I just installed OpenSuse 11.1, Compiz-Fusion, and for some reason it does not work. I can get into the ConpizConfif Settings Manager, but no matter what I enable it doesn't work. I tried enabling desktop effects, but it says that my current "hardware / configuration" doesn't support it, even though I have a Nvidia 9800m GTS, which should be more than enough to handle it, and I installed these drivers;
    NVIDIA - openSUSE
    so I really dont see what the problem could be.

    Please post the output of these commands, I'm wondering if Direct Rendering is actually enabled and if the correct driver is listed in the X config file.
    Code:
    more /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep Driver
    Code:
    glxinfo |grep render

    im not sure exactly what I did, but it works now. I disabled something, and then when I rebooted the Nvidia software seemed to be in charge of my display, rather than the stock software, and that seemed to work.
