Hi all,

first of all I'd like to thank all of you who put time and effort into
improving the Linux experience on the otherwise wonderful Vaio z-series!

I have recently bought the Z51WG-B but have not yet managed to get the
nVidia card to work. Maybe it is the Bios issue but on the other hand
I'm happy using the Intel card.

What really bothers me is that I cannot get Compiz to work on the Intel
card. Compiz starts alright but the screen is all garbled as if there is
something wrong with the depth. Trying to change the depth (as suggested
somewhere on the net) does not help.

Does anyone has any ideas on what might be wrong or what I should try?

# dmidecode -s system-product-name
VGN-Z51WG_B
# dmidecode -s bios-version
R5030M3

Thanks

/Magnus
