Bug Description
When using ppa:vanvugt/

When I use compiz from the precise repositories (0.9.7), the first window is placed in the upper left corner and the second window is placed in the lower right corner -- i.e., they have minimal overlap. When I use compiz from ppa:vanvugt/
I am using a WUXGA screen (1920x1200) and have multiple (4) horizontal virtual desktops. My video card is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260M, using NVIDIA driver version 295.40. I get the same result on my other machine using a GeForce GTX 295.
