[Bug 306400] [NEW] compiz stopped working

[AndyOsi]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

I'm using a Thinkpad Z61T with integrated Intel i945 graphics card. Two
days ago compiz effects stopped working on my machine for no apparent
reason. When I attempt to enable them on the 'Appearance' menu, an error
message pops up saying that desktop effects could not be started.

Starting compiz from the CLI reports:

Checking for Xgl: not present. 
Detected PCI ID for VGA: 
Checking for texture_from_pixmap: not present. 
Trying again with indirect rendering:
Checking for texture_from_pixmap: present. 
Checking for non power of two support: present. 
Checking for Composite extension: present. 
Comparing resolution (1280x800) to maximum 3D texture size (2048): Passed.
Checking for Software Rasterizer: present. 
Software rasterizer detected, abortingaborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity

Please note that previous to this compiz had never had any sort of
issue.
