I had a similar problem the other day when I loaded for my son a "Cat in the Hat" CD under Ubuntu instead of Windows. Grey, like you, I first pondered the hassle of reinstalling. But instead I noticed and error message hinted that metacity wasn't running. Try:
sudo metacity or metacity in a terminal. The borders were restored, no problem. Several boots later everything still looks to be running fine. Good luck, Jamal -- there is no application border https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/158911 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
