Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

on workspaces with one fullscreen window and several regular windows
(possibly hidden behind the fullscreen window), pressing alt-tab to
switch windows will show a black screen when the fullscreen window is in
focus in the switcher.

This is gutsy, updated/upgraded via apt-get yesterday, running on a
lenovo thinkpad x60 w/intel 945 graphics.  OpenGL programs work nicely
on this machine, with compiz they are somewhat slower.  I run the normal
X server, not Xgl, since when I enable Xgl everything except panning
between workspaces gets very slow (wobbling, for instance).

I have enabled "extra" desktop effects - wobbling, panning workspace
switching (not the cube). I run many workspaces and switch between them
with ctrl-f1, ctrl-f2 etc.

I usually dedicate some workspaces to running applications in full-
screen (not maximized, but full-screen) mode - an xterm for irc on one
workspace, a fullscreen firefox on another, etc. Normally I have a
desktop shortcut (shift-ctrl-enter) to toggle fullscreen, so i use it a
lot.
