The composite extension is not necessary for AIGLX or XGL. Leaving it disabled is fine. Follow the directions at http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_AIGLX for more information.
hi
AFAIK, the proprietary ati drivers don't support compositing and the xorg drivers don't support dri for r400 chipsets
i.e. aiglx doesn't work for the xpress 200m :(
i've read somewhere that xorg is working on dri for r300 & r400 chipsets. we have to be patient.
best regards robert
