Am I the only one whose xgl got broken with 8.24.8?
the "normal" xorg7 works just fine including direct rendering.
Running the latest from shadowhand, xgl displays a blank screen for a few seconds and then quits.

I've managed to get Xgl running again with startxgl.
However, GDM still dies and restarts endlessly without showing anything.
There are no errors in the files in /var/log/gdm.
am I the only one with the borked GDM?

this configuration worked with xgl using 8.23.7:
[servers]
0=inactive
1=Xgl
[server-Xgl]
name=Xgl
command=/usr/bin/Xgl :1 -ac -accel xv:pbuffer -accel glx:pbuffer
flexible=false
chooser=false
handled=true
priority=0

startxgl 1 gnome atiworks fine here with the latest drivers
please note that I use kernel26beyond and thus also ati-fglrx-beyond,
but in essence, its the exact same driver
However, I did have to change something or else the screen would just go white/black (dots?) with a black cross, meaning Compiz couldn't load.
I read somewhere that increasing the "sleep" before starting Compiz could help, so I made the following change to "/usr/bin/startxgl":
(this is just a piece out of startxgl, not the whole script)
...
else
msg "Using card: other"
Xgl :$xgldisplay -ac -accel xv -accel glx:pbuffer &
fisleep 10
msg "Starting Compiz (window and composite manager)"
DISPLAY=:$xgldisplay LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mesa-xgl-cvs/lib/ compiz --replace gconf gconf-dump miniwin decoration transset wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom scale move resize place switcher trailfocus water &sleep 1
if [ "$2" = "xfce" ]; then
msg "Starting xfce-mcs-manager"
...
Another note: I had to do "startxgl 8 gnome ati" with the previous driver (latest one of the 8.23 series) for some unknown reason, other things then 8 worked too, but I never got 1 to work, now with 8.24.8 it does work.
