Ahh. FWIW, I think I always patched compiz to ensure it started the decorator for you... So a question is: Is compiz running but without decorations? If yes, then is the decoration plugin loaded in compiz itself? If yes, then I'd suggest that either: 1. Compiz is no longer staring the decorator for some reason. or 2. The script "compiz-window-decorator" is not working. That's probably the first place to start.
