Now I have compiz-beryl working but it uses openGL When I run fglrxinfo I have this message $ fglrxinfo display: :93.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect OpenGL version string: 1.2 (2.1 Mesa 7.0.1) I use the ATI drivers downloaded from ATI's page, and I generate the RPM packages from it and I used the packages for update my driver, after re-install the dirvers I run again the fglrxinfo command, I have that the driver was ATI, and ATI Catalyst Control Center work good, but the next day it returned to OpenGL Dirver How can I do for to make work good the right dirver? Thanks for your help.
