Same problem. I had to remove compiz because I have a multiseat configuration and one of the seats use a mach64. On that screen I was getting a white screen for some users. Gdm would show the login screen and the user would login, but immediatly after the first refresh the screen would go white. I tried everithing I could think of until I noticed that compiz was running for that user and decided to remove it, and that fixed that problem. But then metacity won't start for a long time. I can bring up a terminal (I have a launcher in the panel) and start metacity manually. Is there an easier way to disable effects in metacity without reinstalling compiz? (Of course, the menu in system->preferences is gone now) Mine was as well an upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy, and that upgrade was anything but smooth! There is something about the simplicity and stability of Slackware that I'm starting to miss ...
