[compiz] Will radeon or radeonhd work with compiz?

[David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.]

Sam, Danny, J., all

	I am working with the radeon and radeonhd drivers seeing if I can get them to 
work with compiz 0.8.2.1 on my radeon x1200 laptop. My xorg .conf is:

Section "Device"
  BoardName    "RV350 NP"
#  Driver       "radeon"
  Driver       "radeonhd"
  Identifier   "Device[0]"
  VendorName   "ATI"
EndSection

	I have tried both the radeon and radeon hd driver with same results. Upon 
Compiz start, the display behaves exactly like it is going to work. The 
display goes blank, sequentially erasing and redrawing each window, but then 
it never actually  starts. The windows are just left there with no decor. You 
can sill provide in put to them, but you cannot move or resize them. Issuing 
kwin --replace causes the reverse to happen (windows destroyed, black screen, 
windows then redrawn with kde decor.

	Does anybody have and idea what's happening and how to fix it? Thanks.
