Bug Description
Binary package hint: desktop-effects
I have a nvidia Quadro FX-500... I am running image 2.6.19-6 and restricted-modules 2.6.19.3-1...
when i enable desktop effects all window decorations go away (ie: title bar, borders, etc...)
this has always been an issue with compiz and nvidia... perhaps we need to make the "Enable Desktop Effects" script more robust to deal with this...
until then desktop-effects can be considered broken for nvidia...
