[Bug 353126] Re: Compiz / vnc screen refresh with nvidia-restricted driver/VirtualBox/ATI fglrx driver using X.org

 

Since installing version 256 I haven't been able to turn on compiz on my
system, let alone have it work remotely. System / Appearance / Visual
Effects / Extra causes the screen to blink a bit and then "Desktop
effects could not be enabled".

>From Xorg.0.log it is loading the new driver and seems happy. It
initializes the GLX extension. However, System / NVidia X Server
Settings on the OpenGL/GLX Information tab says "Failed to query the GLX
server vendor". Weird?

System / Administration / Hardware Drivers shows nvidia_current but says
"This driver is activated but not currently in use". However, this
appears to be a known bug with jockey. I did try Deactivate, Activate,
reboot - no change.

dmesg appears happy and references the new version.

"modprobe nvidia" does not find the module. Seems odd.
