Package: compiz
Version: 0.5.2-2
Severity: normal

I get compiz to work straight from the unstable packages,
but only whn i run
compiz --replace
as root
When run as normal user, metacity unloads, but compiz decorator 
doesn't : windows borders doesn't show, 
and i got the same messages as when run as root, so i can't tell what's 
wrong.
I checked permissions on compiz installed files and folders, everything 
is 644 or 755 as expected.
I'd like to help more, but i don't know how to run compiz with debug 
on...

No need to feel stupid, compiz' defaults are stupid :)

Yes, but we already have a bug about that :) (#440095)
