Hello, After an update, I started to have this error when starting compiz..
Checking for Xgl: not present. Detected PCI ID for VGA: 01:05.0 0300: 1002:4336 (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Checking for texture_from_pixmap: not present. Trying again with indirect rendering: Checking for texture_from_pixmap: present. Checking for non power of two support: present. Checking for Composite extension: present. Comparing resolution (1024x768) to maximum 3D texture size (1024): Passed. Checking for nVidia: not present. Checking for FBConfig: present. Checking for Xgl: not present. Starting gtk-window-decorator .... Fatal: No GLXFBConfig for default depth, this isn't going to work. ... I looked at the /var/log/Xorg.0.log and it had an error saying that it couldn't find radeon_dri.so so i figured the reason was that libgl1-mesa-dri was not installed, so i had no acceleration at all. I installed it and it worked. Maybe this will help someone. I'm not sure why libgl1-mesa-dri was not installed. i think it was installed before but was removed by an update or something. Maybe ubuntu has to have a page where people can follow steps in troubleshooting compiz problems.. eg. check acceleration, check blacklist, etc... -- [gutsy] Regression - "Desktop effects could not be enabled" on ATI Mobility Radeon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144077 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
