[compiz] "sync request issue"

It seems that the latest updates have "partly" solved the annoying 
nvidia driver bug with black windows (for NV2x cards).

I can simply invoke compiz like that:
compiz --replace gconf

and everything works fine, no black windows or windows that don't 
update. I say "partly" because performance is sluggish now. Whatever 
these new updates do, they seem to bypass the driver's problem and 
possibly hit a slower rendering path.

it's good that at least it works now in some way. Thanks David, et all

Let's hope nvidia will soon release a drive fix for this annoying bug 
that's been out for ages!
