$HOME/.config/compiz/compiz-manager :
SKIP_CHECKS=yes
Ok, su thus this is the file / setting that makes compiz-manager ignore it's knowledge about the missing 3D render capabilities and thus results in the message cited in this bug. Remove the file $HOME/.config/compiz/compiz-manager and the error will vanish.
