Dear List,

I have a problem, where I am not sure if I am missing a module, or have
an xorg.conf issue. I am using an Radeon X1400 video card in my laptop
(Lenovo R60) I have compiz up and running, and seem to have no other
issues. When I start a video while compiz is running, then the video is
very choppy. During cube rotate or when moving the normalized window,
the video blinks and is almost full screen. I have tried to submit this
question to the xorg list, but am having technical difficulties getting
my mail posted.

Here is some info, that I hope will be helpful in finding the error.
[snip]
Section "Device"
    Identifier  "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
    Driver      "fglrx"
    BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
[snip]
And the last bit of info baffles me every time.


~$ glxinfo | grep -i direct
direct rendering: No (LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT set)

I have upgraded to the Catalyst 8.9, and now direct rendering is working
again, but still choppy video. Can I provide you with more information
to help? Were you refering to the kernel module (fglrx) or something in
my xorg.conf. Thanks for your help.

The kernel module.
