Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: compiz
Installed Gutsy Tribe 4 on my Dell Latitude D600 laptop. The live CD
seemed to be OK, X settings were normal.
After the first start the laptop was unusable, because compiz was
turned on and rendered only 3/4 of the screen. The gnome panel controls
were not visible, so it was unusable.
I suspect that the video card (ATI Mobility Radeon 9000) hasn't got
enough RAM to paint all of the screen when desktop effects are used. If
I reduce the color depth to 16 bit compiz can be enabled (tried that
with feisty).
So either compiz shouldn't be enabled by default for this laptop or the
color depth will have to be reduced.
** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu)
