Compiz won't start + trying to start compiz from terminal gets errors
Running 'compiz --replace' from terminal results in
"~$ compiz --replace Checking for Xgl: not present. Blacklisted PCIID '1002:5955' found aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity " |
You're using an Xpress 200M which, for some reason, compiz-manager is blacklisting. If you are sure your drivers are installed properly, you can always test bypassing the blacklist with 'SKIP_CHECKS=yes compiz --replace ' and see if compiz starts and works properly.

Which is probably why it's blacklisted. The Xpress 200 should work if it's setup properly. Which desktop environment are you using? Can you please show us your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file and the output of 'glxinfo'?

Just so you know, the proprietary drivers dropped support for your GPU a year ago. If you upgrade to any reasonably up-to-date distribution, you will have to use the open source drivers.

The open source drivers are vastly better than they were back when Lenny was actually up-to-date (two years ago?)
