No you don't miss something :-) You are right, installing xserver-xgl is NOT a FIX.
My problem was that I had no shadows. (hardy 64-bit, Geforce 8600 GT) I installed the official driver manually and my shadows were back, so it is a problem of the ubuntu package, I think. I would NOT recommend people to install xserver-xgl!!! best wishes Achim -- [nvidia 169.xx] gtk window decorator somtimes draws decoration ugly or not at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/186382 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
