1) Wouldn't be simple to whitelist card working with compiz if you state
there are not too many.
For oldest ati card (mine is 5 years old) the ONLY way to have compiz is
using ati open source driver because fglrx doesn't support them.

2) Does your change blacklist radeon driver too?
My card works with radeon driver too, so radeon could be set as default for
this card, fixing all problems.

What do you think about these 2 suggestions?
