Metacity crashed because of a third party driver for the ATI video being 
installed. Metacity did work after clearing sessions. Removing the third 
party driver was the fix.
Metacity probably should display some error dialog for the user in the 
GUI to inform the user it could not start because of a problem encountered.

Just to clear up the sessions did not help out matters.
