Desktop effects will not work. Wobbly, cube, transparency, fire…nothing. It’s just the standard theme. I’ve tried a few different configs, and have downloaded the specific drivers I thought would be needed to make this work. If I tail /var/log/messages while enabling desktop effects through Simple CompizConfig this is what I see:
Oct 22 17:06:26 D6CDV4H1-Suse kernel: compiz[14221]: segfault at 74 ip b79a6523 sp bf8b12bc error 6 in libwall.so[b799f000+10000]
I do have dual-head display correctly working!
I feel that at this point, I just may be missing something obvious, but don’t know what to look for. Please review the below information on my setup and configurations to assist in enabling desktop effects (which I really love on my test Opensuse 11 box!).

Card: ATI Radeon HD2400 XT (RV610 94C1)

I will be happy to provide any other information necessary. Thank you to all who at least took a look at my post! Looking forward to hear back as this is my first post with OpenSuse.
