Created attachment 69689 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=69689&action=edit Screen snapshot: fading rendering
Having installed mesa 9. Compiz works @ ~5 FPS producing output as if one is drawing in aquarelle on a wet paper (pls see attachment). Wallpapers are rendered properly while all the windows are drawn this way. Meanwhile nothing unusual were found in logs.
I installed it on Gentoo by unmasking my arch then update. It also required to add libGLU. I tried few pre-releases as well as 9.0 on both 3.4 and 3.6 kernels with the same result. I assume maybe some other changes are required I'm not aware of. Version of software are media-libs/mesa-9.0 x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.14.6-r1 x11-libs/libdrm-2.4.40
