[Bug 408293] Re: Xserver crashes enabling visual effects

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
  
  The xserver crashes when enabling visual effects.
  
  To reproduce:
  1. Log into GDM
  2. System>Preferences>Appearance>Visual Effects>Normal
  Detecting driver dialog shows, "Unable to enable effects" dialog shows a slit second before returning to GDM login.
  
  Note can enable visual effects by running "compiz --replace" from the
  command-line.  X crashes when quitting compiz in this case.
