The message that compiz prints isn't very informative:
Checking for Xgl: not present.
Found laptop using ati driver.
aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity
ie 'Found laptop using ati driver' doesn't indicate to me at all that there is an error and that it has blacklisted my card - it looks like a friendly status message.
Could it at least be changed to indicate that the ATI driver is blacklisted and to give a link that explains why it is blacklisted and how to whitelist it?
