Description

This test case tests whether compositing_manger setting of metacity is successful with the Nouveau driver.

Ensure the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not exist, or is a valid file that uses the nouveau driver. If you are using the live image, ignore this step
Shut your system down entirely, then start it up again
Install gconf-editor by typing su -c 'yum intsall gconf-editor'
Next, run the command gconf-editor
In the navigation toolbar on the left, follow apps→metacity→general, and enable the compositing_manager checkbox.

The graphical desktop should be displayed correctly when 'compositing_manager' is checked
With metacity's compositing enabled, window shadows and ALT-TAB with window screenshots should be displayed correctly.
