But wobbly windows etc now work fine.
Do we know why this happened, and why for this specific card?
Did the developers drop support for it from the default driver, or is it some other issue?
I suppose it
is an old card, but it had always been my most trouble free with Linux, up to now.
Worked for me too but then I also noticed the effects were less smooth. Let me know if you find a fix for that. I thought about using the Envy program to install a different driver or just using synaptic to install anything ATI related that I don't already have.
