Hi All,

I installed rawhide on an asus eeepc 901 last night... can't say its
been the most enjoyable experience.

But the big issue I'm seeing which is basically making X unusable
seems to be because metacity is segfaulting (details below). There
were all sorts of other weird errors too at one point to do with
gconf, no idea why but will try another reinstall once the Beta hits.
Has anyone seen this before? Is there a way to move to to compiz on
the command line so I can see if I have any more luck with that?
