Thanks a lot, bro! I purged the original related packages on my system, and
changed the source to:
 deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/shames/debian-sid/desktopfx/unstable/ ./
and installed the full packages (compiz*, compiz-fusion*, fusion-icon,
emerald), and now it's working fine.

There are still two problems on auto-startup.
1). I followed some guides I found out on internet, and changed the
following two files:
/etc/xdg/xfce4-session/xfce4-session.rc,
/usr/share/desktop-base/profiles/xdg-config/xfce4-session/xfce4-session.rc

I changed
Client0_Command=xfwm4
to
Client0_Command=compiz (or compiz --replace)

but nothing happended after I entered xfce4.
For now I have to use "compiz --replace" as the auto-started application for
xfce4

Is there any ways to launch 'compiz' upon startup, instead of starting xfwm
first and 'compiz --replace' it?

2) "emerald --replace" can only be started up successfully after "compiz
--replace"
I thought I can only start "emerald --replace" without executing "compiz
--replace", is it correct?
Now when I want to use emerald, the error message indicating
(emerald:6034): Wnck-WARNING **: Property _NET_WM_NAME contained invalid
UTF-8

Can I start emerald as I do for compiz??

Thanks a lot.
M.Y.
