[compiz] [feature request] fglrx without Xgl works with copy method in beryl
Latest amd/ati drivers (8.37|8.38) supports composite with dri. So, after patching beryl (cause he can work without tfp) to make it use direct rendering on "aiglx method" and removed check for GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, which fails. - I was able to run beryl on fglrx WITHOUT Xgl. Only bug with windows drawing exists(as noticed in latest known issues for ati drives), more about this bug - http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=725 So developers, pleeease, add --use-copy method to compiz, even not to git, at least as a patch. So after amd/ati will fix bug with composite (I so hope) we will be able to get compiz/beryl without Xgl.(inderect rendering will be still software). few screenshots http://img124.imageshack.us/img124/909/fglrxkm4.jpg http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/9746/screenshot4oi7.png
