Before reloading compiz, I can't move windows, but I can reach them by clicking on panel or directly on visible part of window; after reloading - I can move window on top, but I was completely unable to reach other windows by clicking them or on panel and also I was unable to typing (menu was clickable, so I could save terminal output, but only overriding existing file). "Metacity --replace" works without spuprises. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/973559 Title: gtk-window-decorator is exiting immediately (or crashing?)
