For a number of people (like me) the failure occurs so soon login & Alt+F2 can't be issued.

The metacity --replace & is only temporary and must be repeated on each boot.

sudo alt-get remove compiz & compiz core fixes it permanently. The side effects are a slight increase in speed since the compiz code doesn't get executed, and less "eye candy" if that matters to you.
