Gave Scott's PPA a try - unfortunately I still see the same behaviour - windows such as Firefox, VLC media player, Nautilus, gedit, etc. still have the same problem.
The one difference I did notice is that after applying the PPA, the "minimize and maximize" (or switch windows with ALT+TAB) trick used previously to work around this bug no longer worked. I am running Natty with Ubuntu Classic (the regular one, not the "no effects" one), but compiz is running as well: keith@ryo-ohki:~$ ps aux | grep compiz keith 1276 1.4 1.4 60196 14348 ? Sl 12:09 0:14 /usr/bin/compiz keith 1376 0.0 0.0 1912 508 ? Ss 12:09 0:00 /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/compiz-decorator keith 2518 0.0 0.0 4160 864 pts/0 S+ 12:25 0:00 grep --color=auto compiz Not sure what the next steps should be - if more info is required, or if this should be a new bug. Any guidance on this would be helpful; I want to help as much as I can with this! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772612 Title: maximized window is displaced To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/772612/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
