Hi,
I've upgraded my Ubuntu 8.10 to Ubuntu 9.04 — Jaunty Jackalope recently. After update 2 days ago and reboot I've found my awm gives out error:

"Warning: Screen isn't composited. Please run compiz (-fusion) or
another compositing manager."

Also I found out all effects are gone, I couldn't turn them on at System
-> Options -> Appearence. All compiz cube rotations and such gone away
aswell. Here what happens when I try to run compiz manually:

itzamna@pureenergy:~$ compiz --replace

xset q doesn't reveal the location of the log file. Using fallback /var/log/Xorg.0.log

I do not use metacity or at least I don't know if I'm doing it. Always
had gtk theme + compiz running on.

I also can't run any opengl game anymore: openarena for instance says
GLimp_Init() - could not load OpenGL subsystem.

I have Asus GeForce 9800 GTX, I was using drivers from nvidia.com,
thought maybe it has something to do with it so i've installed ubuntu's
restricted drivers for my card - nothing have changed.

What can it be, should i provide some other info?

Add:
I've just updated Ubuntu and all is working as it should again. Sorry for disturbing you.
