@jerrylamos, Compiz is *not* part of the kernel. Compiz is deciding your hardware doesn't support 3D because there is an issue in the video driver which is failing the loading of OpenGL (the 3D). This is strictly an issue with the video driver in the kernel and is causing Compiz to fail. There isn't anything that the Compiz team can do about this.
That said, I'm going to subscribe the kernel task to this bug and see if more traction can happen there. ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
