red colors, black windows when rotating cube

[Emmanuel Touzery]

Using the ATI driver. I manually enabled KMS to workaround 413259.
I also specified AGP4x instead of the default 8x to workaround a freeze that I got in 8x (don't know if that was enough yet).

3d effects appear to work fine except for cube switching.

When I use the cube plugin:

* everything goes red
* most of the time the contents of the windows turn black (sometimes not I think during the rotation, but when I trigger the cube with control-alt-click they are always black I think)

I don't know for sure if it's a bug of the ATI driver for my hardware or a compiz bug, I guess if someone with another graphics card can confirm that the cube works fine for them then we can be sure it's the driver.

OK I noticed something very funny now.
When a window spans on two desktops, in the cube it can happen that on one desktop the contents of the window is visible and the title bar is not, and the other half of the window in the other desktop, the contents are not visible and the title is.

everything is red though. video does play in the cube and gets deformated, also red colors.
