I'm not in front of my computer right now, but I can tell you that if I
*boot* (not change, as you mentioned) in vesa ("safe graphics mode"),
then I don't have problems.
Also, if I go to a console and put a resolution bigger than 1280x1024,
then, I think that due to the lack of VRAM, compiz is disabled and I get
a normal desktop, without the effects.
I would like to use the 3D effects, and I bought a Matrox G400 exactly
because it is/was one of best supported cards on Linux, with
specifications for the (at the time) XFree86 developers (so that I
wasn't tied to Linux only).
I don't know if my guess regarding the resolution is correct, but it
surely seems to be the case. I will get to my computer as soon as I can
and I will try to see if */detect_outputs is enabled or not.
Thanks, Rogério Brito.
