Bug Description
I have a toshiba m30x laptop with an ati 9600 video card
ferama@redbox:~$ lspci | grep ATI
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10]
I use opensource ati driver since Gutsy and it worked very well with compiz
Driver "ati"
Now I have updated to Hardy Alpha 6 and when I try to enable compiz from visual effects preferecces it want to install the ati proprietary driver (it say that I need it to enable visual effects) but I don't really need it. If I try to run compiz by hand on a terminal it work well as it did on gutsy.
If you need further info please let me know.
