Yep, that did it - Compiz is now running at login. Thanks for your
help.
Does that mean it needs to be reported upstream? If so, not sure of

Thank you for your feedback. I'm assigning this to gnome-control-center,
as I think that it is the gnome-appearance-properties capplet which
needs updating to take in to account the changes in gnome-session.

Compiz Fusion does not add a session entry. When you enable Compiz, it
modifies a GConf key which tells the session manager which window
manager to use. I can't remember the name of the key at the moment
though and won't be able to check until I get home this evening.
In the meantime, could you
My bad! There is actually a session entry, but it isn't created when you
enable Compiz. It is created at install time I think

No worries.
I'm running 8.10 (updates to date) - clean install from alpha 3 LiveCD.

Sorry, Chris - I mistakenly added the 'bcop' back to the bug. I'll
leave that with you please.

Right, in Hardy there is a compiz.desktop launcher in /etc/xdg/autostart
which launches Compiz. This seems to be different in Intrepid. There
seems to be a lot of extra GConf keys for gnome-session. There is a
GConf key called:
/desktop/gnome/session/required-components/windowmanager
This is set
Note that I manually added 'compiz --replace' to my sessions when I
realised it was missing - although removed it to produce the .xsession-
errors, above.
'--get' reports 'metacity' with Compiz activated already (via my
manually added Session).
If I manually turn off Compiz, it still says
When you change that GConf key to 'compiz', you would need to log out
and back in again for it to have any effect.

Ok, could you also try the following:
gconftool-2 --set --type=list --list-type=string /desktop/gnome/session
/default-session [gnome-settings-daemon,compiz,gnome-panel,nautilus]
...then log out and back in again.
Thanks

By trying what I just suggested above in my Intrepid virtual machine, I
can get Compiz to attempt to start automatically on every session now
(obviously, it fails because I don't have the graphics hardware). My
~/.xsession-errors file shows this happening.
So I think that this bug is related to
