hi there, first post on this list :) i installed fedora9 preview on my lenovo thinkpad x60 the gfx chip is an intel "i945GM" i've found when i run compiz X gets rendered all white.. i can't see a thing.. but i can guess it's still working though: cube and scale plugin seem to respond, so i can see a white cube on a slightly darkened white desktop ;) .. same for "scale plugin, i see background that get darkened a bit.. i've figured if i install fusion-icon and choose "indirect rendering" setting, my desktop is being rendered correctly :) that's the good news.. so i can use compiz on my laptop. it's working through that "indirect rendering option though. i was wondering why i had to use that indirect rendering option, and if i can get rid of it ? i tryed adding "i915.modeset=1" in my grub.conf, i can report new resolution available, fast vt switching, no problem with font rendering, and things being a bit slower than before.. it seems stable, and it didn't helped with my problem of X being rendered all white and me having to set "indirect rendering" .. kernel mode setting looks very promising though :) hum.. anyone can see a solution about my X being rendered all white and indirect rendering option problem ? thanks
