There is some confusion in here by a few of the other posters (not the
original reporter that knows about the limitation). The 2048x2048 3D
texture limitation is a _hardware_ limitation, it has never worked under
compiz with a virtual above 2048x2048 on intel chip older than 965. It
used to be possible to use higher virtual sizes if you removed accel
support but that has been broken under KMS since it came out.  Try
booting with i915.modeset=0 added to grub until the patch supporting it
under KMS lands  Lucien, it should still be possible to use >2048
virtual sizes (without accel) under UMS with the git20090702 driver
thats currently in karmic.
