Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-restricte
The latest update broke compiz. It has worked since Edgy and now fails. Here is the error:
jeff@desktopmon
Checking for Xgl: not present.
Detected PCI ID for VGA: 03:00.0 0300: 10de:0221 (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
Checking for texture_
Checking for non power of two support: present.
Checking for Composite extension: present.
Comparing resolution (1280x1024) to maximum 3D texture size (512): Failed.
aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity
Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "toggle_shaded"
I think the resolution vs max 3D texture size (512) check is bogus. This has worked flawlessly for sometime on my Geforce FX 6200.

Also, all tooltips are black and completely unreadable. This includes any update / notifications from notification- daemon. It really makes the desktop experience miserable. Marking as High.
