Comment 10 for bug 141543

I am experiencing the "failing 3d texture size check" issue too. This used to work a few weeks ago. I have an r200 with 32mb video ram.
lspci:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] (rev 01)
starting compiz from the terminal:
Checking for Xgl: not present.
Detected PCI ID for VGA: 01:00.0 0300: 1002:4c66 (rev 01) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
Checking for texture_from_pixmap: present.
Checking for non power of two support: present.
Checking for Composite extension: present.
Comparing resolution (1280x800) to maximum 3D texture size (1024): Failed.
aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity

My screen resolution is 1280x1024.

And finally:
$ dpkg -l |grep -i compiz
