ALT-TAB does not work after turning compiz off (using shift switcher plugin)

[Robert Mileski]

Binary package hint: compiz-fusion-plugins-main

This bug affects only the shift switcher plugin from compiz.

If I turn Compiz off, the ALT-TAB combination for windows switching does not work. Turning it back on, compiz continues to function with ALT-TAB.

If I turn compiz off, and rebind the ALT-TAB key through System -> Preferences -> Keyboard shortcuts, under "Move between windows, using a popup windows" and restart gdm, with compiz off, the normal function of ALT-TAB continues.

Any thoughts on this matter?
