From what I read, the GL extensions required to run compiz won't be
available until the 9.x versions of the ATI driver. Only the free
"radeon" driver works currently with compiz, but doesn't support
accelerated 3D for the most modern ATI cards out there (compiz works
fine for me with an "old" AGP 9200 and a "recent-ish" PCI-e X300,
though).

Send your feedback directly to AMD/ATI... and wait for the free driver
to support your card or for ATI to finally release a driver which
supports the required extensions...
