@Alistair. Fine....

it is a different bug (that i can reproduce EVERY single time, following the EXACT same instructions in this bug report - and the bug appears to be the exact same, with the exception of the blank windows appearing black - although they used to appear white (for the longest time, like a year - and if they had continued to be white - you wouldn't be claiming it's a different bug at all... but oh no, Alistair can't reproduce it - so that is the end of story :\ ).

but i understand now, since you can't produce it - it is impossible for it to be the same bug in your mind...There couldn't be some other culprit making this slight difference, like different nvidia settings or a difference in hardware, etc...

anyway, it doesn't matter anymore.... i am unsubscribing since in my mind, Compiz is dead (or close to being dead) and has become more and more unstable, less feature rich and bugs don't get fixed unless they affect OSS drivers or Unity (neither of which i use).

plus, compiz can't even handle moving windows when using XBMC, nor (after all these years) can it draw windows in scale/expo without having badly aliased edges. it kills performance in some applications and isn't improving at the same rate as other compositingWMs, either. ...and like i said, I've switched to Cinnamon, now ~ which instantly fixed a myriad of problems that had been ongoing when using compiz.
