Package: compiz
Version: 0.0.13+git20060928-2
Severity: important
Running compiz shows my whole screen white. Playing with the keybindings
show that some effects are running fine (the cube, the switcher, etc)
but only the icons get displayed, everything else is blank.
I have a i810. Attached goes my xorg.conf. Any further info I may give
you, please ask.
