When I click on the toolbar button to select a border for selected cells and choose the bottom right option (haven't tested the others), a warning comes up telling me that the screen is no longer composited, and Compiz crashes entirely, sometimes requiring a logout or restart. This is entirely repeatable on my system. Screen composition fails, though the cells do still gain their borders.

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version.Thanks in advance.
