I honestly have no clue how this happened, but compiz now refuses to start. I discovered that somehow GLX had been uninstalled and replaced by SWX (the software rasterizer - this gives Brian Paul as the OpenGL/GLX server vendor strings). Reinstalled GLX, currently have Direct Rendering and the proper vendor strings (SGI and Tungsten, I believe).
Still nothing. OpenGL seems to be working fine, as Nexuiz runs pretty well.
I tried running compiz --replace from the terminal to get any errors, but it just spits out "Falling back to default window manager", without so much as a hex code to tell me why.
Any ideas?
--------Update---------
Ran compiz --debug --replace to see if I could get anything else. It gives the following:
taintsauce@the-****ing-fury:~$ compiz --replace --debug

Tried reinstalling all compiz related packages, to no avail.
