    A few video related Compiz problems

    I have an HP Pavilion dv65000 running Hardy.
    I installed Compiz on it, and it has a Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller for a graphic card.
    I'm experiencing the following problems:
    1. Blue screen on video. It plays video fine, but if I zoom out with the cube the video screen is blue. Also, if I have a window border crossing the video, there's a blue border around it where the shadow should be.
    2. Preview windows don't show the whole video, but only the part that happens to be in front of the video window.
    3. Skydome images don't show. I get a white screen instead.
    Does anyone knows how to fix these?
    Thanks in advance.

    My frien had a worse problem, he had no video playback at all. Have you changed the opacity settings for windows? If so then undo them. This GM965 chips are real crap (no offense meant). They suck in all dept. Also see that you have the latest intel drivers installed.

    What should I search for to find the drivers?

    So does my glxinfo file tell you anything?
