I had a feeling this was the issue.  We should make something pull
notify-daemon in.

If you enabled the composite extension in your xorg.conf then we get an
ARGB visual and assume composite.  This will change in the future when
Soren adds a selection to his comp manager which I can check to see if a
comp manager is running.  We then make that the standard.  In fact I am
going to turn off composite in my next release.
