Default Desktop effects are not supported...

I have an ATI Radeon 9600 XT card. I'm sure this is good enough for desktop effects to be enabled on. Anyway I have installed the driver from the ATI website for linux. Now every time I try and enable desktop effects it just gives me the message:

Desktop effects are not supported on your current hardware / configuration. Would you like to activate them anyway?

I press yes but it just doesn't enable it. I upgraded compiz. I used the 11.1 1-click thing. It all worked perfectly in 11.0 .. I don't understand what the problem is..

since 11.1 it has been giving me that message.. Does anybody else have this problem?

Any ways to resolve it?

Many thanks!
