looks like my problem was that compositiing was enabled for Metacity.
Running
gconftool-2 -s '/apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager' --type bool
false
I was then able to turn on Compiz.
Changing back to Invalid and forwarding my information to that bug
report. Bug #178953
** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid
