But the whole business is kind of a mess so it is not too odd that you mix things together.
Metacity is on a default Ubuntu desktop the window decorator, it draws the borders around the application. Compiz is the window mananger, it is what dictates the rules for how windows are handled and draws animations and other effects. Both Metacity and especially Compiz have many more functions than what is used in the default Ubuntu setup. Now it might turn out that I have done some incorrect wording, which is not absolutely improbable considering the mess, so I would recommend a slightly less nit-picky approach. -- www.twitter.com/Rovanion
