Compiz can't find manageable screens

Running "compiz" or "compiz --replace" fails with the following error:

compiz (core) - Error: Another window manager is already running on screen: 0
compiz (core) - Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0

Fusion-icon says there is "No GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap with direct rendering context". I try with "LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1" and still there are no screens found by compiz. Starting compiz from xinitrc also fails.
The driver in use is the open source one, also, I have no xorg.conf. There is direct rendering.
The solutions in the wiki for the GLX_EXT problem didn't help.

Do you have any ideas how to get compiz running?

(And a small question. If I have no xorg.conf, how do I select a different driver (fglrx)?)

Thanks for reading.

Re: Compiz can't find manageable screens

Make sure "fglrx" does not exist in your Modules line (or any other config file that you may have put it in: rc.conf, etc)
