[Bug 571771] [NEW] ATI graphics driver has trouble with 3D apps: Celestia, Google Earth, Stellarium

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Kwin has many problems when using 3D applications such as Celestia,
Google Earth, and Stellarium. I am not sure how related everything is,
so if this should be broken into several report then please let me know.

1) When using these applications the display flickers terribly.
2) When another application is focused above one of these applications, the
offending application's main window (but not the window chrome or toolbar) is
shown above the focused window. (see screenshot below).
3) Main Menu items are drawn below the main window (see screenshot below)

Kubuntu 9.10, FOSS drivers, Kwin Composting enabled. The closed source drivers do not let me enable Composting.
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility X1400
