Hi guys,
I have a compiz/gnome/ubuntu problem. After a fresh install of ubuntu 8.10 (and also with 8.04) I can turn on visual effect and it's all very nice. However after I change my screen setting for the first time to include the laptop VGA output to use a beamer, then visual effects fail. Compiz saying "Checking for Xgl: not present. " Anyone know how to resolve this?
Complete compiz output:
n$ gnome-appearance-properties
There is no available graphics driver for your system which supports the composite extension, or the current one already supports it.
Checking for Xgl: not present.
Detected PCI ID for VGA:

Trying again with indirect rendering:
