I've installed it, but it's not convenient today to logout to restart
metacity.
Note that the problem with the undisplayable firefox window is probably
a separate bug. I think it relates to a similar problem: I keep an xcb
window at the bottom of the left screen. It has started vanishing off-

so I could attach it here. However, by the end of this report, it had
been removed by the package system. I had done this, thinking kit would

Hmm, that was weird: similarly to comment #4, I just noticed a Firefox
window lose all its decorations, so to hide it I had to use its icon in

Title:
metacity (flashback) crashes and forces logout
I'm just reporting in that since upgrading metacity using Alberts' PPA,
I have not experienced a further crash. The nearest I came was a screen-
