We ran into the same problem when we were setting up new terminal
servers for the Update Computer Club. Seems like the gnome-wm script is
broken.
Seems like window manager discovery starting at line 69 gets disabled
since DEFWM is set to /usr/bin/compiz on line 49 if no window manager
has been specified in gconf. This shouldn't be necessary since compiz is
the first window manager to be tested if the composite extension is
loaded.
Removing the following lines (46-50) from the script, should fix the problem,
while still preserving Compiz functionality:
if [ ! -x "$DEFWM" ]; then
gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/default
/usr/bin/compiz --type string
DEFWM=/usr/bin/compiz
fi
