I used the compiz wrapper in the past. It only gave me a blank screen and I couldn't do anything else, unfortunately. :-( I was keen on seeing what compiz.real showed as error messages and that is why I used it for this bug report. Now, the compiz wrapper just suggests me to use indirect rendering, when invoked with --help.

Care to educate me here about what is lacking on the hardware-side of things? > It's not clear to me what problem you're reporting... I would like to avoid the use of indirect-rendering to save some CPU time.
