Intel 965GM chipset with compiz

[Craig Preston]

I am using F9 with the intel chipset. With desktop effects turned on, the
cube and wobble windows and all that stuff works fine. Video and multimedia
all seemed to be fine as well, but scrolling in Firefox was terrible. Turn
it off and scrolling is back to normal.

I have left it off for the time being until i find a solution (not that i've
really looked)
