** Description changed: Binary package hint: compiz Running Ubuntu version 8.10 AMD64. compiz version: 1:0.7.8-0ubuntu4.1 What I expected to happen: To find no graphical glitches. What happened instead: Certain GUI items (mainly menus, sometimes the bottom few millimetres of a window, occasionally gtk buttons but not certain about that), don't display correctly and instead display 'corrupt' textures, for example bits of icons, black lines etc. appear at certain places. If I drag a window over the 'bad' element, it fixes itself. If i get bad textures in a menu, reopening the menu 1 or 2 times will fix it. None of this happens when running metacity, either with a compositing manager or without. It seems to only happen with compiz, although I haven't checked any other window managers. The fact that it stops if I switch to a different window manager does lead me to believe, however, that it is an issue related to a window manager if not in particular compiz itself. Also - this problem doesn't seem to happen on the root account whether I'm running compiz or not. So could it be a configuration issue? My hardware: Video card: nVidia Geforce FX5200 PCI. I will upgrade this to a PCI express 9600 GT next month, so if it stops then it's something to do with the video card.
