OK, sorry for being so incredibly late about this but hey, better late than never!
I disabled the blacklist and am STILL having problems. I ran compiz from the Terminal, here are the errors: compiz Checking for Xgl: not present. xset q doesn't reveal the location of the log file. Using fallback /var/log/Xorg.0.log Detected PCI ID for VGA: 00:02.0 0300: 8086:2a02 (rev 0c) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Checking for texture_from_pixmap: not present.

This bug is still affecting me - ideas?
