[Bug 369042] Re: fglrx + desktop effects = failed resume

[tmokeefe]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: kwin
  
  My Config:
  Dell Studio XPS 16
  ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3670
  4GB RAM
  Kubuntu 9.04 w/ fglrx video driver
  
  My Problem:
  When desktop effects are enabled and compositing type is set to OpenGL, resume from suspend-to-ram fails. The resume results in a black screen with some colored lines at the top of the display. The machine appears to be hung i.e. no VT and a hard reboot seems necessary. 
  
  Temporary Solution:
- Disabling desktop effects or setting the compositing type to XRender, resume seems to work normally.
+ Normal resume can be achieved by either 1) disabling desktop effects altogether or 2) setting the compositing type to XRender which has severely limited functionality as compared to OpenGL.

+ Normal resume behavior may be achieved by either 1) disabling desktop effects or 2) setting the compositing type to XRender, which is unfortunately much more limited in functionality than OpenGL.
