Bug Description
Binary package hint: desktop-effects, gnome-control-
"Desktop effects" tab in System -> Parameters -> Appearance
If you use restricted fglrx ATI driver, it displays message "Composite extensions not available". It's absolutely unclear where the problem is, and why this setting is not working. As well, when you click "ok" in the error message box - nothing happens. Only way to close in is to press [X] in the corner.
Yes, we know, fglrx is not supported by composite extensions. It would be good to see message saying something like "Desktop effects not supported with proprietary ATI driver".
