This effect occurs with or without compiz. There are error messages in console, but I get the same error messages under Gutsy and things work fine there.

Regarding compiz and extra kernel windows, if you open Option Inspector, Window Properties, Window Frame and change it from "Normal" to "Generic", the extra windows will not appear when using compiz anymore.
