Ah, of course, sorry about the confusion: yes, Metacity.

I can try that but not before early next week: I need a working machine
because of some deadlines and I am not prepared to experiment more that
just running Debian testing, especially as my chipset is not mentioned
explicitly in the Debian package
(http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd)
My configuration btw:
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV670 AGP [Radeon HD 3850]
Packages:
fglrx*: 1:9-12-1
xorg: 1:17.4+4
