Please note that there are two questions being talked here:
- The added checks before starting compiz, which may be too stringent, but can be bypassed;
- If the tests pass and compiz starts, it might work ok, or it may present garbage in the right and bottom of the screen.

Also, there seems to be a regression _not_ related to the added checks (at least in the Gutsy Beta Live CD), because I have been able to use compiz in Feisty, provided I set my display to 16bpp, but now, even if compiz starts by skipping the checks, it always presents the garbage / non-refreshing right and bottom. glxinfo -l reports the same GL_MAXIMUM_TEXTURE_SIZE of 1024 in both systems, but one presents the garbage while the other doesn't.
