I want to use the metacity compositor but I'm finding that it's much
slower than with no compositor or with compiz. Something's up. I'm using
an Nvidia Quadro4 900 XGL, and have the nvidia driver enabled via the
Hardware Drivers manager. I've attached my lshw and xorg.conf, if anyone
can give me a clue about how to get to the bottom of this it would be
appreciated, and then I should be able to make a good bug report.
