I'll update this post with more information as I get it.

I went and formatted the Hard Drive on my Laptop so that I would no longer dual boot. I wanted a Ubuntu only system with Windows in a VM session. Just what did I come back to find? The directions for Compiz no longer work! Why you might ask? Because Compiz seens to be no more. Word on the street (aka: web) is that the project has been forked. The projects new name appears to be "Beryl". So I say to myself, Okay I'll just install "Beryl"! Oh ..., but not so fast, you see I can't because there does not seem to be support for intel just yet. So what am I to do Corvillus? Please help me if you can, I dying over here :) Okay, I have really done it this time!

Also, I notice that they added a new compiz-manager package in those wiki directions. It looks like I'll have to update this post to reflect the new changes.

On a footnote, I followed your orginal directions and they worked to perfection. However I, like most found that after updates my AIGLX was broke. I also had a few problems with your new directions, but that was because it would try to install packages that were no longer current or needed. This even after I did a purge. I did find that the directions post at: http://wiki.compiz.net/index.php/Aiglx/compiz_on_an_Intel_i915_video_card Worked well for me even though I don't see much difference when compared to yours. Thanks again Quick question,

NOTE: Still with no title bar :(( After changing these packages to compiz, compiz-pligins, compiz-core, csm... my desktop acted very odd and the cube, windows moving and other facilities did not work. Any suggestions ? The only way things worked out on my computer was using
