With compiz on, viewing graphics with any program (e.x. VLC) gives me a split screen, but no flicker. I have 9/10th of screen above a line, and 1/10th below a line, at my chosen resolution. I did not try to lower the screen resolution, will do it and report back. The problem of lockup (keyboard, monitor et al) when trying to switch users is still present (even without compiz). With the Fedora drivers, I can switch users without any problems.

When i had installed the 8.573-1.9.1.fc10 version, they were in updates-testing. however now I see them in updates. Good thing they still have the older version still available there. This looks like an ATI issue, as my XP install also has this flickering with the latest drivers. -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
