Some investigations tells, that GM 965 was blacklisted in /usr/bin/compiz.
Please, turn it back on, compzi actually work fine on my X3100 card.
And "XV does not play with XAA under compiz, only with EXA " looks very strange, i can watch movies using compiz, including full screen and scalling, even if using UXA.
I think, that X3100 is so popular device, and disabling compiz for it is ambigous.
Now i have manually changed
T="$T 8086:2a02 " # Intel GM965
to
#T="$T 8086:2a02 " # Intel GM965
in /usr/bin/compiz.
still waiting for changes in Jaunty release.
