I assume blurring isn't enabled by default in Compiz since it's unstable with some (all?) Intel chips. On mine it leads to an unusable desktop.
$ lspci -nn | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27a2] (rev 03) Is there some kind of fallback that can be used? Lot's of users will be using Intel's GMAs, and it might be worthy to note that Cimi - of the rgba capable Murrine engine - is adamantly against transparency without blurring: http://www.cimitan.com/murrine/node/132#comment-314 ** Changed in: notify-osd Status: New => Confirmed -- Missing blur behind notification bubble https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332571 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Notify OSD Developers, which is subscribed to Notify OSD.
