After shutting down/restarting from KDE, Compiz continued to work great. After logging off and on again, however, I was greeted with the broken Compiz - no 3D, broken window decorations.

At last I found out that the *//usr/lib/libIndirectGL.so.1, which I had to remove as a step towards getting a working compiz, had somehow been restored. Removing this again was all it took to get compiz up and running again.

I don't know what restored this file/symlink, though...

ldconfig will restore it each time yast or sax2 is run.
