Hello i have the same problem and i have a script that launch compiz at startup
and when i don't launch it at the startup and started it's after logon i have to lauch the script twice time before it applied correctly compiz and emerald
i don't think it's the script because i have kiba launched with it .
I tried to use the rc levels to solved( because i think it was a problem with X maybe compiz start before ) but no succes .

Well, it's hard to guess what's wrong, when you don't show us the actual script.

And you should run the script in the terminal to see if everything's working fine, before running it on startup.

SO this is my startup script

#!/bin/bash
compiz --replace&
sleep 5
kiba-dock
I forgot to say that i've made an update of my kernel version now i've 2.6.20.16
before i've 2.6.20.12 and at the same time an update of compiz core and some lib i've forgot the list don't think it would be important at this time (Fu...K)
i have now this version of compiz 1:0.5.2+git20070918-0ubuntu5~ppa1
maybe i don't have the good version or a modified by someone because in this time i have much source in my source list and don't make a great attention to what i updated to thinking it's was an improvement
PS : i attached a file who is the return of a
$ compiz --replace who succeed
and this link point to the return of the one who fail --> http://pastebin.ca/731389
thanks for the help and sorry if i made mistake on writing i'm not a English speaker
