Small notes ...
I note a minor inconvenience to any advancement of kernel or better, for each cleaning of the old kernel. Usually after a small trial of the new kernel, I use delete the old, apparently without problems. When I restart the system I find this notice:
"Ubuntu is running in low-graphic mode

The following error was encountered . You may need
to update your configuration to solve this.

[EE] Failed to load /usr/libxorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so
[EE] Failed to load module "radeon" (loader failed, 7)
[EE] No drivers avaiable."
It's clearly that it does not find this module, even if I do not understand why, because I was using the new kernel for some time. After all I just removed the old.
The crude solution is still quite simple.
Unlocks libgl1-mesa-dri and update all. Then proced to re-downgrade libgl1-mesa-dri and restart Xserver.
Is it common such behavior?

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: compiz
  
  Ubuntu 9.10 - When turning on "Normal Effects", after the driver
  finishes loading, the desktop wallpaper disappears and except for the
  top and bottom panels, the screen is black.  Also full screening flash
  based applications from within Firefox causes the screen to go black.
  Same machine, Jaunty worked perfectly with desktop effects on.  In
  addition, effects themselves are extremely slow in comparison with
  Jaunty.  All of this makes me suspect that there is a problem with the
  compositing interaction and the direct rendering drivers for AGP Radeon
  7500.
  
  Not sure how I can help, but willing to perform other tests and provide
  results if it will help diagnose the issue.
  
  Have attached Xorg.0.log to hopefully help narrow this down a little.
