Bug Description

I have a Lenovo B50-30 - 15.6" Laptop
- CPU: Celeron N2840
- GPU: Intel HD Graphics

And Im using Lubuntu 17.10

To reproduce:
1. First I installed all compiz packages: (sudo apt-get install compiz*)
2. Configured compiz to show the window decoration
3. Then enabled compiz (compiz --replace)

Now and again the window decoration flickers like crazy. If I move the mouse and hover over the maximize icon the flickering stops temporarily.

As a workaround I have disabled the Intel i915 driver (i915.modeset=0) on the grub boot loader.

But this is not a good solution because the graphics arent as sharp without the GPU.
