This problem still exists for me. I have a Samsung X20 with a mobile 915G integrated graphics controller.

Until about last week, compiz-fusion worked fine using the normal xserver-xorg. After some updates (the "normal" ones coming out of the standard repositories!), compiz-fusion stopped working and complains in the following way:

mneisen@samsumm:~$ compiz --replace
Checking for Xgl: not present.

Starting kde-window-decorator
/usr/bin/compiz.real (core) - Fatal: No GLXFBConfig for default depth, this isn't going to work.
/usr/bin/compiz.real (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
/usr/bin/compiz.real (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0

If I install XGL, compiz will work, but it is unbearingly slow - and it wasn't that slow until last week. Plus, I have noticed that my GFX card has no direct rendering any more:

mneisen@samsumm:~$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect

I would appreciate if someone could sort this out. If you need any additional information, please do not hesitate to ask.
