Bug#393355: Compiz: Everything is completely white, but plugins work

[Alessio Gaeta <alga777@gmail.com>]

Subject: compiz: Everything is completely white, but plugins work
Package: compiz
Version: 0.2.0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable



-- System Information:
Debian Release: testing/unstable
  APT prefers testing
  APT policy: (850, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable'), (750, 'experimental')
Architecture: i386 (i686)
Shell:  /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash
Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-gas-machine
Locale: LANG=it_IT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)

Versions of packages compiz depends on:
ii  compiz-core         0.2.0-1 OpenGL window and compositing mana
ii  compiz-gnome        0.2.0-1 OpenGL window and compositing mana
ii  compiz-gtk          0.2.0-1 OpenGL window and compositing mana
ii  compiz-plugins      0.2.0-1 OpenGL window and compositing mana

compiz recommends no packages.

-- no debconf information

When I launch Compiz (with 'compiz --replace', in Gnome), everything 
becomes completely white (i.e. no textures at all), but plugins seem to 
work correctly: I can switch windows and so on, including (blind) 
writing in the console 'metacity --replace'; the only things I can see 
are program icons in the switcher.
I'm using the unstable version (6.5.1) of all GL related libraries and 
I've updated all Metacity and Gnome packages to unstable.
All works fine (but windows scrolling and resizing, too slow) with 
0.0.13 git version.
My graphic card is an ATI Radeon 8500 (r200).
Thanks
