Comment 105 for bug 729979

@Jan

that is a very long-winded comment. You could have probably not mentioned half of that stuff and more accurately gotten to your point.

On the issue of black-windows - it IS the exact same bug - *not a different one*. On some people's machines it used to appear white (like at the time of reporting this bug), but later became black - yet exhibits the 'exact' same behavior as this bug. I don't use Ubuntu, but i believe 12.04 should exhibit white-windows, while 12.10 + newer nvidia driver exhibits black - but somebody in Ubuntu land would need to varify that because i use Archlinux and vanilla compiz (as opposed to Unity).

As a side note: I'm not feeling positive about this bug actually ever being fixed though. I heard SmSpillaz is no longer even working for Canonical (not that he is the only dev - but certainly a big contributor who is familiar with compiz' internals) and this bug report has had little to no progress in fixing it and has been open for a very long time (unfortunately).

i guess we'll see what happens.
