Package: compiz
Version: 0.6.3~git20071208.25941d14-1
Severity: normal
Hello,
after update from stable to testing, compiz refuses to work anymore.
Which means, that if compiz is started with `compiz --replace` the
boarders of all windows (xterms, etc) disapear and the windows become
unmoveable.
The following is the output of compiz:
compiz --replace

/usr/bin/compiz.real (cube) - Warn: Failed to load slide: freedesktop
Due to the line "Checking for Xgl: not present.", I guess that there is
something foul with package dependencies.
The graphic card is an ATI Radeon X300 and the X11 device driver is RADEON.

Ok thanks, I am closing this bug.

We already do that already for people that try compiz for the first
time. But we have somef people like you that suffer from this problem
because they have an old configuration that compiz created when it did
not enable many plugins by default. We might want to update this config
to something with more plugins. But we need to check first that there is
no good reason for people to disable those plugins. We'll see what we
can do.
