After doing the intrepid to jaunty upgrade I restarted the system to not
have desktop effects enabled and was unable to enable it. >> compiz
--replace would resolve in a window system with no title bars or ability
to move windows, Metacity worked perfectly.  After hunting around for
hours and upgrading the nvidia drivers to 185.18.04 from TheFirstM
https://launchpad.net/~thefirstm/+archive/ppa to still no resolution I
used apport to auto generate the trace and stumbled across this bug in
the process.

I didnt necessarily have to upgrade the drivers as the problem was the
same as above where the symlink at
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so was succesfully changed
during the upgrade. But the symlink at /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libglx.so
was not changed and still referenced the old file. Whether or not this
file is required I am uncertain at this stage but after replacing the
deadlink with the correct one and rebooting the system everything works
perfectly.

The target I used for the symlink is
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so.185.18.04
