I am using the normal xorg packages in unstable and compiz works just 
fine on my iBook with the ATi 9200. Am I missing something? What should 
these patches provide?
The only "problem" I have is that on resume from sleep I get weird 
artifacts around the gnome panel, but that's about it. Restarting compiz 
makes them disappear.
