after activating "normal" for compiz in gnome-appearance-config, headers are still missing, but menubar of window is no hidden under panel.
every window i open is drawn to the top left corner of the screen with no window-header and the menu hidden under the panel.

Hi dieb,

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (and maybe Xorg.0.log.old) file from after reproducing this issue. If you've made any customizations to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.
