Public bug reported:

Hello

I use Lubuntu 16.04 and when I try to open any game made with Unity3D,
the computer presents different issues. It may:

-Open the game correctly (rare);
-Make Openbox crash and recover and the game is not visible even if it is still 
running (rare);
-Crash Openbox with no recovery than restarting lxsession (common);
-Crash the whole Xorg or lxsession (uncommon).

The higher the resolution of the game, more prone it is to errors. As a
(very bad) workaround I had configured all games to open with a 800x600
window.

While sometimes appears the apport window pointing to Openbox, Xorg,
Lxsession, Steam or even Skype(?), I suppose Openbox is the responsible
because I noticed it was the first, and sometimes only, thing to crash.

To test my hypothesis, I have installed different alternatives to
openbox: marco, metacity and xfwm4. None of them suffer from similar
issues and I can open the games at 1366x768 with no issues. I decided to
use xfwm4 instead of openbox as default due to this problem.
