First of all, thanks for the great work everyone, for getting this issue to a workable state. It really is a beautiful thing in the open source world when bug reporting and developer insight work together to bring about betterment for all.

This weekend, I tried to install 8.10 on my brother-in-law's computer, and we ran into this issue. This page helped me through the problem, and so I'm very grateful. My question is, I'd like to keep an eye on the i845/compiz issue, so when things are sorted out, and Visual Effects are working again, we can reinstall compiz on his system and enjoy the eye-candy. Is this where I should be watching for updates on the issue, or is there another bug report I should be following?

Thanks in advance.
