I used the proposed repos and installed the 8.6 fglrx driver to use with my ATI Radeon HD3870 (rv670 graphics chip).

Compiz worked fine, but running anything that required 3d acceleration or running just about anything through wine screwed up graphics -- totally fubar. The only way to fix that was to restart X or reboot the system. Similar to what "Jimi Erikssson" reports, launching World of Warcraft through wine (or actually just about anything through wine) screwed up the image by chopping up everything into randomly arranged pieces of what is supposed to be there in a mostly black screen.

Uninstalling the drivers through EnvyNG, disabling proposed and reinstalling the old ones (8.4) worked fine. Right now just about everything works properly.
