Bug Description

My system crashed a week ago.. tried to get it up running via safemode but got the error - couldnot start the X server (your graphical environment) due to some internal error. So i searched the web n found that i could uninstall the compix n also teh flgrx driver.. it worked and i was able to gt it running. I was also able to download back the fglrx driver but cannot enable the visual effects.. always gets the error.. i installed the compiz but then the system crashes as before
I need to mention that i have a 9.10 installed in the same laptop in no probs with the destop effects n compiz..
