Hi,

This is not directly related to the problem posted in the list, but
can surely help in fuguring out more information.  Please see the
script 'compiz-check' available at
http://forlong.blogage.de/article/pages/Compiz-Check .  It's a shell
script that will check all the (graphics) drivers installed on your
system and also test your configurations.  It's a handy tool, when it
comes to figuring out basic settings for running compiz.  Another
thing you can check is the frames per second that your card and driver
combo is giving, by running 'glxgears'.  It's a basic benchmarking
tool found on all Linux systems (afaik) and is also quite popular on
Windows.  Run it and compare your score with others who have the same
hardware/driver combo.  Hope this helps... :)

P.S. : Wil people kindly avoid 'top posting' when replying to mails???
It really is irritating at times to go through the entire mail, to
find that only 2 new lines were added to the entire mail...
