Right, as said, this is a plain Ubuntu install, with Gnome, and XFCE installed 
on top of it, so there's both. Gnome is using compiz, and xfce is using xfwm4.
So i have no idea what is the abowe apt-cache command is good for, it is 
obviously saying, compiz is installed:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8 && apt-cache policy compiz
compiz:
  Installed: 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu2.1
  Candidate: 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu2.1
  Version table:
 *** 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu2.1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic-proposed/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1:0.8.4-0ubuntu2 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages

but it is NOT runnin in a xfce session. xfce is using xfwm4.

ps -ef | grep xfwm4
bsh       2444  2308  0 22:29 ?        00:00:02 xfwm4 --sm-client-id 
268eb3384-bbc8-4fc7-b9b7-9a76002991c1 --display :0.0

I think I couldn't enable desktop compositing under with the xfce app
under xfce. if i wasn't using the xfcm window manager.

Hope this helps.
