How to Fix Maximize Delay/Lag With Compiz And ATI Driver On Ubuntu 10.04 and 9.10

If you have Ati video card and you are using proprietary drivers than you may notice delay/lag when you are maximizing applications or any window.


This can become very annoying.



To fix this go to terminal and type:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:k0ekk0ek/ppa
(I have been using k0ekk0ek's PPA fror long time, but sinc last X update it don't help) 


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:info-g-com/xserver-xorg-1.7.6-gc

then type:

sudo apt-get update

wait until it finish

then type:

sudo apt-get upgrade

Restart X server (restart computer or log out) and you done.
