Good to know :-) Are there any plans regarding coexistence of gnome-shell and compiz other then using the fallback mode? Could you try moving that autostart file away and test again. I did so. Now a Gnome default session starts up and works flawlessly. But ...

Bug#648052: metacity segfaults after todays update to wheezy
Hello, I just upgraded my Debian Testing AMD64 system, and I cannot confirm this bug. Upgraded all 70 packages, 42 new, 5 deleted. After rebooting my profile was been successfully loaded, but GNOME3 runs in fallback mode (due to problem with graphic driver, it said - I will investigate it later). I suggest to you to revert system from backup, do safe-upgrade and wait for responses/ideas in this bug report.
