To use Compiz Fusion with fglrx, you need to install XGL.

As of the October ATI release (8.42) fglrx does support AIGLX. Unfortunately it's 2D performance is absolutely abysmal. The driver can do all of the Compiz 3D effects flawlessly at speed and then some but can't drag a white window around the screen without tearing :mad:

Even with those settings the cube still shows the same desktop, just with the windows minimised, is this meant to happen?

Not 100% sure i follow.
Are you saying you do get the cube but any open windows(meant to be open)are minimized??
Can you use CTRL-ALT-Arrow Keys to spin the cube or indeed right & left mouse buttons similtaneously........OR even MMB possibly??

Do you have the "Desktop cube" and "rotate cube" plugins selected in the Desktop section??

Can you post screen shots???...just use print-screen and save(none of that copy-paste into MS paint first lark);)
