mutter causes skewed window and menu content for some applications

[Matthias Andree]

mutter or libclutter causes a skewed (lopsided) window content, for instance, for gnome-terminal or gimp and menus, but not for xterm. Unfortunately, I do not know how to snapshot libGL stuff on the screen, I persistently get only the background image no matter if I grab the window or the whole screen, so a digital camera snapshot will have to do. Check the gnome-terminal window to the bottom right in the attached DSCF01657.JPG.

I am currently using fglrx 2:8.840-0ubuntu4 on an AMD64 based computer, with AMD/ATI Radeon HD 3300 chipset integrated graphics processor. Can procure further information as needed. I'm removing the package hint as it's likely this bug is also in libclutter.

Lets report against clutter and mutter and see what happens.

This is a very unusual bug.

Natty is no more maintained since a while

Yet another bug that Ubuntu failed to properly triage...
