I've tried enabling compositing_manager in metacity and restarting it, but then got :
Window manager warning: Log level 16: Disabling compositor since the server is missing at least one of the COMPOSITE, DAMAGE, FIXES or TEST extensions
Which is strange since my X log seems to indicate that all those extensions are present (although FIXES and TEST are called XFIXES and XTEST)...
The log _always_ claims to "initialize" the Composite extension, which is broken. If you just see the message:
(II) Initializing built-in extension COMPOSITE
then that just means your server was built with Composite support. If you also see the message:
(**) Extension "Composite" is enabled
then you really do have Composite enabled. If you don't, you need to turn it on in your xorg.conf:
Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" EndSection
