OK, sorry for being so incredibly late about this but hey, better late than never!

I disabled the blacklist and am STILL having problems. I ran compiz from the Terminal, here are the errors:
compiz

Not sure what this means but it's for the developers.

This bug is still affecting me - ideas?

Thanks!
