Public bug reported:

I am running Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick
Video Card Hardware: NVidia GTX295
Output: Dual Monitor

When Xinerama is configured and attempting to set visual effects to
anything other than None the error: "The Composite extension is not
available" is thrown.

This is also causing issues running Virtual Box preventing me from doing
work for the school or my office which require a Windows OS.  Other
issues are display problems where white boxes are appearing all over the
place.  And if attempting to use Avant Window Navigator the GUI goes
into an infinite loop of crashes.

Ubuntu 10.04 worked with no problems.  I attempted to use the NVIDIA
supplied driver as well and this has also caused the same results.  I
have already reformatted about a dozen times trying to find clean
solutions.
