I had the same experience. Django Facebook gave me a few issues in the standard, out-of-the-box configuration, so I looked around and found Fandjango, which worked well (unfortunately, it's only for canvas apps, not a mixed or off-facebook app).

Having said that, I contacted the maintainer of Django-Facebook on Github, and he not only tried to help me at the time, he was kind enough to let me know that a new version came out which should fix the issues I was having. I'll definitely be giving Django-Facebook a try on my next project.
