It looks like you're encountering an issue with the water effect after
updating your kernel and ATI Radeon driver. The screenshot you provided
indeed shows a drastic change in brightness.

Based on the information you've provided, it seems like a graphics
driver issue might be causing this problem. Since you've updated your
ATI Radeon driver, there's a possibility that the new driver is not
fully compatible with the water effect or there might be a configuration
issue.

Here are a few steps you could try to troubleshoot and potentially
resolve the issue:

Revert to the Previous Kernel or Driver: If this issue started occurring after updating your kernel or graphics driver, you might want to consider reverting to the previous version to see if that resolves the problem. This could help determine if the issue is indeed related to the update.
Check Graphics Driver Settings: Make sure that the settings for your ATI Radeon driver are configured correctly. Sometimes, incorrect settings can cause display anomalies.
Update Compiz or Graphics Drivers: Check for updates to both Compiz and your ATI Radeon drivers. Sometimes, newer versions come with bug fixes or improved compatibility.
Disable/Re-enable the Water Effect: Try disabling and then re-enabling the water effect to see if that resets it and resolves the brightness issue.
Check for Known Issues: Look for any known issues or bug reports related to the combination of your kernel version, graphics driver, and Compiz version. There might be a documented workaround or fix available.
Test with Different Settings: Experiment with different settings for the water effect, such as adjusting the intensity or other parameters, to see if that mitigates the brightness issue.
Seek Help from Community Forums: If you haven't already, consider posting about your issue on Ubuntu or ATI Radeon forums. Other users might have encountered similar problems and could provide valuable insights or solutions.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, you might need to gather more information about your https://watersoftenersizecalculator.com/ system's configuration and the exact circumstances under which the brightness anomaly occurs, and then consider reaching out to ATI Radeon or Ubuntu support for further assistance.
