Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

Radeon HD2400, fglrx from restricted repo, up to date karmic.

Compiz, either currently running or once launched in current X session, breaks 3d applications:
tested with stellarium (segfault), urbanterror (heavy fps drop), sauerbraten (heavy fps drop, garbled textures).

Even if compiz no longer running, normal 3d functionality can only be
restored by restarting X.

Also tested: metacity with enabled compositing, xcompmgr - caused no
problems. So it is explicitly fglrx+compiz problem.

It also differs from nvidia situation where any active compositing,
regardless of its source, causes heavy fps drop, but 3d restores back to
normal once compositing is turned off.
