Public bug reported:
How I got to this situation: I decided to switch from a properly
installed nvidia propertary driver to nouveau for testing purposes. I
opened software sources, opened tab Additional Drivers, chose Using
X.Org X Server and restarted.
Now every window is over ubuntu dash if visible.
If I install nvidia propertary driver in similar way, the problem
disappears.
I am not sure if this problem is about unity or about software sources
-- it seems to me that I am still running a sort of nvidia-propertary
driver although I wanted to use nouveau.
