Now it all works perfectly (almost reached what already was in latest Beryl and FC7... ;-) after updating these components at these levels:<br><br>libdrm-2.4.0-0.12.fc9.i386.rpm and xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.8.0-16.fc9.i386.rpm from updates-testing<br>
kernel and Mesa as pointed at <a href="http://airlied.livejournal.com/#item60797">http://airlied.livejournal.com/#item60797</a><br><br>It works well with fusion-icon, both in gnome and kde (4.0.80 from rawhide) and also kde embedded desktop effects.<br>
<br>Hope to see testing packages for compiz <a href="http://0.7.6.">0.7.6.</a>..... it promises even better then the 0.7.2 I'm using now <br>The only problem I seem to have after some testing is with mplayer when switching from window mode to full screen for an mkv file (1920x800 resolution) using a widescreen 22" monitor at 1650x1080.<br>

<br>Just I hope I would have time to compare on the same machine an installed fc8 with latest fglrx from livna and f9 configured as above with the radeon driver.<br>Only compared glxgears that gives about 10.000 frames with fglrx and 5.200 with radeon (500 previously without hw accel).<br>
But it seems it is not a true test...(?)<br>Just verified that openarena runs quite well in f9-radeon so I'm going to compare framerate with it too ... ;-)<br><br>Gianluca<br><tt><font size="2"><br><br></font></tt>
