The stuff in Rawhide works fine on my R300 card (9500pro). Unfortunately 
the fglrx driver doesn't work due to the xorg api changes and the xorg r300 
driver doesn't work with the aiglx bling so I'm running a plain xcompmgr 
setup right now which at least prevents the gtk artifacts when 
moving/resizing windows.
