Bug Description
Just upgraded to 11.10. Sometimes I get a large orange rectangle that covers half of the screen. It is transparent and appears to have something to do with the launch menu. All though the rectangle can appear on the right or left side. When it happens the mouse pointer had just touched that edge of the screen. It will just stay there on the screen, even if I show the launch menu and still persist. If use expo mode to see all the desktops then it will go away after 3 seconds. Then back to normal until it happens again.
I have a nVidia GeForce 8600GT video adapter using the recommended drivers. I used nvidia-settings to change OpenGL to high performance mode. But it also happened when setting was as at the default of Quality.
I think I have seen this on another machine running 11.10 but it has an Intel integrated video adapter.
I consider this more of a nuisance bug than anything else.

It seems like a window is snapped to the left or right side. Are you dragging/moving any windows when this happens?
