Thanks for the reply. I downloaded and installed the ATI drivers 8.40.4-2pclos2007 from Synaptic. They completely screwed my system. I had no window decorations, I lost all virtual desktops and the mouse buttons did not have any affect in any window, compiz-fusion also did not work. I could not run any configuration program to try and sort it because of the mouse problem. I could not run Synaptic to uninstall the driver. Starting in safe mode and then using startx still gave the same problems. I eventually recovered the system, but I dont think I will try Prey again, I will keep my Windows XP for gaming.
