Hi all,

I am using a Dell Latitude D510 and using the intel driver (not the i810 driver) in Ubuntu Hoary (8.04 pre-release version).

I have attached a working version of xorg.conf that enables direct rendering on my pc and that allows compiz-fusion to work correctly. I installed fusion-icon using aptitude and run "fusion-icon" as a shell command whenever I want to activate compiz-fusion.

When launching fusion-icon, it gives the following feedback in the KDE konsole. So it complains, but compiz-fusion works anyway, by reverting to indirect rendering....

* Detected Session: kde
 * Searching for installed applications...
 * Intel detected, exporting: INTEL_BATCH=1
 * No GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap with direct rendering context
 ... present with indirect rendering, exporting: LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1

See following URL for info on how to clean up and reinstall compiz-fusion from scratch in Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon:

Hope this helps you out!

Merry Christmas to everyone,
