Bug Description
I recently upgraded to Oneiric Ocelot beta1.
By default, I logged in to unity 3d interface. I use firefox version 8 (aurora).
* I have two windows of firefox running (with around 190 tabs).
* When I maximize or un-maximize my firefox windows, the window title bar disappears on one of the windows.
* So, I have to use keyboard short cuts for minimize or maximize operations
Also, I noticed that when this problem happens, my task switcher (alt-tab) works weirdly. If I go to firefox, evolution etc. on the task switcher, the window of that app does not come up. It remains in a minimized state on the side bar.
The only way to recover from this problem is to quit/kill firefox and restart again, but the problem appears in a short while.
Alternately, I have switched to Unity 2d and the problem is gone.
This problem is not seen in chrome for eg. I saw some similar behaviour with evolution and other apps but I am not sure of what the exact behaviour was.
