When I fire up xfce4-appearance-settings and switch styles the decorations are back again.

I have the same problem with my xfce4 (4.6.2/4.6.4) running on FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE with nvidia driver 256.53. However for my the whole top of the window is black so no control buttons are visible (they work but everything is black). The problem is caused probably by xorg/nvidia when two monitors are detected by xorg and used together. When second monitor is turned off (at boot time and xorg start) the window decorations are okay, but when both monitors are turned on and detected, then only second monitor has proper decorations and decorations on the first monitor are black. I don't have xinerama running so two monitors are independent and have two separate xfce panels menus etc. Hope this helps to track down the problem :-) Best regards, Tomek Cedro Below is the output of xfce4 related packages - some components are 4.6.2 some 4.6.4: xfce4-panel-4.6.4 xfmpc-0.2.0_5 xfce4-xmms-plugin-0.5.2_11 xfce4-wmdock-plugin-0.3.2_8 xfce4-weather-plugin-0.7.3_5 xfce4-verve-plugin-0.3.6_8 xfce4-volstatus-icon-0.1.0 xfce4-time-out-plugin-0.1.1_11 xfce4-systemload-plugin-0.4.2_13 xfce4-quicklauncher-plugin-1.9.4_11 xfce4-screenshooter-plugin-1.7.9_1 xfce4-power-manager-0.8.2_5 xfce4-parole-0.2.0.2_3 xfce4-notifyd-0.1.0_6 xfce4-notes-plugin-1.7.6 xfce4-netload-plugin-0.4.0_13 xfce4-mpc-plugin-0.3.5 xfce4-minicmd-plugin-0.4_12 xfce4-media-0.9.2_19 xfce4-genmon-plugin-3.2_10 xfce4-dict-plugin-0.6.0_3 xfce4-datetime-plugin-0.6.1_8 xfce4-cpugraph-plugin-1.0.0 xfce4-clipman-plugin-1.1.3_5 Thunar-1.0.2 xfce4-desktop-4.6.2 xfce4-artwork-0.0.4_10 mousepad-0.2.16_7 orage-4.6.1_6 xfce4-appfinder-4.6.2 xfce4-mixer-4.6.1_6 xfce4-print-4.6.1_6 xfce4-session-4.6.2 xfce4-settings-4.6.5 xfce4-utils-4.6.2 xfce4-wm-4.6.2 xfce-4.6.2 thunar-volman-0.3.80_2 thunar-svn-plugin-0.0.3_9 thunar-media-tags-plugin-0.1.2_15 thunar-archive-plugin-0.2.4_8 squeeze-0.2.3 ristretto-0.0.91 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfwm4/+bug/1082139/comments/7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2012-02-21T09:15:57+00:00 B8444920 wrote: I can confirm the problem. I use nvidia driver 290.10 and xfce 4.8.0.3 in Debian. I have two monitors which configured to use different xorg screens, the first monitor windows has black caption and borders, but on the second monitor everything is ok. When I kill xfwm and xfce restarts it everything becomes ok.

Issue has bee nreported for years on various NVidia forums and yet there's no fix. So... Does the same happen when using the Open Source "nouveau" driver, or even "nv"?

When there is no any saved sessions everything works as it should. But when I create any session (even without any other applications) the problem appears. I think something is wrong with execution of xfwm from saved session.

Because when you setting up driver with xrand it doesn't create two independent xorg screens, and the bug appears only when system has two xorg screens (":0.0" and ":0.1" in my case). And nvidia doesn't support xrand so people with these driver setting up two screens and there the bug appears.

Just like Nvidia's solution, AMD's default setup (non-Xinerama) creates separate X screens.
