Guys,
On my box I continue to have problems with the current kernels on, booting lts
works fine with compiz - how is that so? IIRC - lts used to be cli only, now it
boots into runlevel 5 just fine.
Any thoughts on why compiz won't run on 2.6.34-2 or 2.6.34.1-1?
I'll keep tinkering, but any help would be appreciated...
Here is a bit more information:
I don't do anything different when booting or starting Arch with any of the
kernels or the radeon driver. I am totally confused why compiz works great with
LTS, but white-screens with the current kernel. For both kernels, I don't use an
xorg.conf and the modules loaded look the same:

Allan, anybody, can you think of a reason compiz would be white-screening with
the current kernel and working fine with LTS?
