Yes, this is a first link I have checked, but there about xorg.conf
also. I can not find that file in /etc/X11 anymore. Actually, I cannot
find it at all.

I have installed:

compizconfig-settings-manager - Compizconfig Settings Manager
compiz-fusion-plugins-main - Compiz Fusion plugins - main collection
compiz-core - OpenGL window and compositing manager
compiz-gnome - OpenGL window and compositing manager - GNOME window decorator
compiz-gtk - OpenGL window and compositing manager - Gtk window decorator
compiz-plugins - OpenGL window and compositing manager - plugins
compiz - OpenGL window and compositing manager
libdecoration0 - Compiz window decoration library
python-compizconfig - Compizconfig bindings for python
libcompizconfig0

But compiz does not works:

$ compiz --replace
compiz (core) - Fatal: Software rendering detected.
compiz (core) - Error: Failed to manage screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0
Launching fallback window manager

Correct me, if I am wrong, but the question is how to enable hardware
3D support in 'radeon' video driver, which is in use by my Radeon
Mobility 7500? Or, if it is impossible, how to change video driver,
which will support hardware 3D and will works with compiz?

I am asking, because I had have working compiz with Debian Lenny.
AFAIR, I have added those parameters from wiki page you have
mentioned, installed compiz, that is it. I do not remember any trouble
or any questions about it.

Please, help to bring compiz to live in Debian Squeeze.
