There may be something relevant here, though I am not convinced...

Interestingly I can see that compiz is not functioning on this
machine. This is possibly related.

Your help has been greatly appreciated regardless. We shall see if
others have anything to say in due course

Yeah, I know grep a little. Great stuff. I used 'grep -l -r "show-fps"
/<dir>' and found the SetFPSDisplay function. However, further
searches led me only really to already compiled files (like .so) which
didn't really help.

Thanks again
