I finally figured out how to get compiz working on a computer with an
intel 845 chip that is running intrepid.

Make the device section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file read as follows:
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
        Driver          "intel"
        Option          "AccelMethod"   "XAA"
EndSection

You will also have to remark out the line in the file /usr/bin/compiz that 
reads:
T="$T 8086:3577 8086:2562" # Intel 830MG, 845G (LP: #259385)
