I want to use compiz in my x200s with debian testing. Because the
xserver-xorg-video-intel is 2.3.2, it does not support the Intel GMA 4500
video card, it use vesa. When I start compiz, it does not work, the message
as follows,

Checking for Xgl: not present.
No whitelisted driver found
aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity

So I try to configure xorg. Could you help me resolve this problem? Thanks
