Comment 1 Chris Campbell 2009-11-13 01:30:07 UTC
Since this bugzilla report was filed, there have been several major updates in
various components of the Xorg system, which may have resolved this issue.
Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade their system
to the latest version of their packages (at least F12Beta, but even better if
the very latest versions).

Please, if you experience this problem on the up-to-date system, let us now in
the comment for this bug, or whether the upgraded system works for you.

If you won't be able to reply in one month, I will have to close this bug as
INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you.

[This is a bulk message for all open Fedora Rawhide Xorg-related bugs. I'm
adding myself to the CC list for each bug, so I'll see any comments you make
after this and do my best to make sure every issue gets proper attention.]

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 12 development cycle.
Changing version to '12'.

Antonio, the original bug report is for Compiz not working on an Intel Graphics accelerator X3100 and was reported from rawhide. Since you are reporting Compiz not working on NVIDIA under Fedora 12, would it be possible for you to open your own bug? (Adding NEEDINFO again.)

Since there are insufficient details provided in this report for us to investigate the issue further, and we have not received feedback to the information we have requested above, we will assume the problem was not reproducible, or has been fixed in one of the updates we have released for the reporter's distribution.

Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade to the latest update of their distribution, and if this issue turns out to still be reproducible in the latest update, please reopen this bug with additional information.

Closing as INSUFFICIENT_DATA.
