I tried that one but it didn't help.

In the end the "fix" I found was to revert:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?h=server-1.6-branch&id=444127f9f408d2f517fdfab0092bd67b29073373

Before this, compiz would start but give a white screen on the cube 
face. More intelligent scripts would probably stop it starting in the 
first place.

Hope this helps.

Col
