Had the same problem, and should it not be enough to just try to fix the
compositing manager?

If you run Gnome, your default window-manager is Metacity, right? On
this link: http://wiki.awn-
project.org/Installation#Installing_Avant_Window_Navigator I found a fix
for Metacity.

"Metacity: The default window manager for Gnome. Compositing support was
started for this WM in November 2003 (around version 2.7.0), but it has
never been very stable. Because of this, it is not enabled in most
distributions. Recently though, work started on a new implementation for
compositing support that is in version 2.22.0 (and later). To enable the
compositing manager, you need to use the "Configuration Editor", AKA
gconf-editor, to set the key /apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager
to true (i.e., the box must be checked). "
