Gentlemen: The reported problem is absolutely repeatable on my machine. When Gnome first starts, all application screens lack the usual minimize, maximize and close icons in the upper right corner of the window. To correct this, I open the Gnome Appearance Panel and the properties indicate that there are NO visual effects. I change this option to "Normal Provides improved usability and a good balance between attractiveness and moderate performance requirements." A box stating "searching for available drivers" appears followed by a dialog asking if I wish to keep the new settings. I select the option to keep the new settings and immediately my cursor options take effect and all windows immediately start displaying the minimize, maximize and close icons, which were previously missing. Everything works as expected from this point on. However after a restart, the visual effects revert to "None" and again all windows lack the minimize, maximize and close icons in the upper right corner.
This was a fresh install of Ubuntu Studio 9.04 and there were no error messages displayed during the installation process. For me, the error is (unfortunately) infinitely repeatable. *Leo C.
