I think I have found a fix for the issue of the garbage at the
right/bottom when forcing compiz to start despite the failed texture
size. By setting a virtual size I manage to use my preferred resolution
(1280x800), without needing to revert to 16bpp:

Put this in your "Screen" section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

        DefaultDepth    24                      
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           24
                Virtual         1280 800
                Modes           "1024x800"
        EndSubSection

Values may differ according to desired resolution and maximum texture
size (1024 in my case, hence I choose 1024x800 for the modeline.

Though untested, I think compiz should in this situation start cleanly
without the SKIP_CHECKS=yes option enabled.
