Hi,

I try to get that Compiz desktop cube to work, but after trying it for hours
and hours without success, I now need some help.
Compiz is active and I also activated "cube" and "rotate". In Yast, I see
that Radeonhd has been installed.

in Sax2 it says "activate 3d acceleration" in light grey text.

If the wrong driver is being used, how do I force the use of Radeonhd?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
Just use kwin, which is the default. It's fully configurable to add all
the bells and whistles....

Sounds like you need to install the proprietary drive and run
aticonfig? Checkout the openSUSE forums, there are a few threads on
this.

did you install?
- patterns-openSUSE-kde4_xgl
- compiz

Go to "start" - systemsettings - desktop - desktopeffects (under KDE4)

if you can't start this effects
then can you, as test, start you're pc in failsafe mode and try to actived
after that you know that you need ati drivers ;-)

Yes I did.

Here it says Compiz is active. Other Compiz effects work, but I can't get
the desktops on a cube: I just see the usual desktop when I press
ALT+CTRL+Left mouse button.

These lines suggest the right driver is being used IMHO:

OpenGL vendor string: DRI R300 Project
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R300 (RS690 791E) 20090101 x86/MMX+/3DNow!
+/SSE2 NO-TCL

I just don't get it why other Compiz effects work, but not that cube.

Thanks!
