Failure starting compiz

When I attempt to start compiz (using Fedora 7), it fails with the
following console output:

gtk-window-decorator: Could not acquire decoration manager selection on screen 0 display ":0.0"

(process:9514): GLib-WARNING **: GError set over the top of a previous GError or uninitialized memory.
This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL before it's set.
The overwriting error message was: File not found
compiz: Failed to load slide: fedora-logo

The overwriting error message was: File not found
compiz: Failed to load slide: /usr/share/pixmaps/fedora-logo

Since it works fine using another account on the same machine, I figure
there are probably some configuration settings somewhere that have
gotten hosed. But "rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/compiz" doesn't fix things, and
I'm not sure where else to look.

Any ideas?

    ... I thought I'd ssh the whole file over to this box, to prove it, and discovered in the process that, while the interface was set up properly by the installer, the hosts file was set up to tell the fedora 9 box that it was the external interface of my dsl router. ...
