Bug Description
Binary package hint: compiz
I'm using a Dell Dimension 2400 with an Intel Pentium 4 @ 2.8Ghz and Intel 82845G Chipset graphics card. When I was using Ubuntu 8.04, the desktop effects worked very well. SInce I updated to Ubuntu 8.10, I can't enable compiz on my computer (it didn't even start at first, I had to use the terminal and switch to metacity because else Ubuntu was unusable). Finally I tried to start compiz through the terminal and I receive this meesage:
Checking for Xgl: not present.
Blacklisted PCIID '8086:2562' found
aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity
I'm using compiz package 1:0.7.8-0ubuntu4.1
Thanks in advance.
