I’m working with a Dell Latitude D610 laptop. I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on this 
computer. Everything seems to work ok except my wireless, I went through a lot 
of troubleshooting issues and can`t enable wireless. I get a message that says 
“Quote" dhcpcd wireless problems. dhcpcd wlan0 removes essid entry in iwconfig. 
Any suggestions? www.http://lewis4884.web.officelive.com

I think it has more to do with Compiz than it does your video card. At
any rate, on all of the 3D apps that I use, every one has the caveat to
turn off Compiz in their HOWTO's. Sorry to report, so far that is the
way to make them work in my case, as I think Compiz is the shiznit! I
LIKE the eye-candy too! 

The only reason I run KDE is that I like being able to move my mouse
pointer to the edge of the screen, up, down, left or right, and move
into the next workspace, without clicking on some #$%^& workspace icon.
Why Gnome doesn't have that, without enabling Compiz, is beyond me.
