I can confirm this happens with Virtualbox guest drivers on (guest) Xubuntu 12.10, running on a host with Virtualbox 4.1.2, Xubuntu 11.10 with Nvidia graphics hardware (on which the Xfce glitch mentioned does not present... :-))
Deleting everything in $HOME/.cache *does not* fix this specific problem. Debian testing (Wheezy)'s version, 2:1.12.4-1, is unaffected by this on Intel graphics hardware *and* on a VirtualBox instance with identical guest graphics and host machine to the affected Xubuntu release. In the latter case, the fact that it works is almost certainly wholly due to Debian's revert of the upstream change introducing this regression as a fix for debbugs #688908. In short: Unaffected: Xubuntu 11.10 + xorg 2:1.10.4-1ubuntu4.3 + xfwm4 4.8.2-0ubuntu1 + nvidia-current 280.13-0ubuntu6.2 Affected: Xubuntu 12.10 + xorg 2:1.13.0-0ubuntu6 + xfwm4 4.10.0-2ubuntu1 + virtualbox-guest-x11 4.1.18-dfsg-1ubuntu1 Unaffected: Debian wheezy (testing current) + xorg 2:1.12.4-1 + xfwm4 4.8.3-2 + xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.19.0-6) Unaffected: Debian wheezy (testing current) + xorg 2:1.12.4-1 + xfwm4 4.8.3-2 + virtualbox-guest-x11 4.1.18-dfsg-1.1 Hopefully the Debian solution will be forwardported into Xubuntu at some point, or upstream will address it and we'll get the fix that way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1043575 Title: Xubuntu 12.10 + Xorg server 1.13 = Window decoration missing Status in Xfce4 window manager: Unknown Status in X.Org X server: Confirmed Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “xorg-server” package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: I'm running Xubuntu 12.10 with the latest updates and certain themes that use 1pix window border, like Greybird won't show title bar and window borders. This problem exists at least with Nvidia drivers, Vmware and Virtual Box. And it doesn't exist in a fresh Ubuntu 12.04 with xorg server 1.11 using the same drivers. Other people found the same issues, so I think it's a general thing. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1152840 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xfwm4/+bug/1043575/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
