Noticed that for me just disabling the focus effect in the animations plugin gets rid of this bug for me. All other animations can still be enabled and the bug goes away.

[Compiz] [Bug 1162954] Re: Nvdia blank black windows
Use Nvidia 319.23 (xorg-edgers) with the Compiz experimental ppa in 13.04 (though I don't think this ppa is essential and sometimes it does break Unity, so I have stopped updating from it after a while) Here are how things stand on my system I) If all windows are non minimized, then no black window switching either with alt-tab or the shift switcher. 2) if some windows are minimized but there is only one isntance for such applications (e.g no two instances of evince for two pdf documents), then no black windows switching with alt-tab 3) if the minized windows (may have more than one instances of the same applications) restore to non maximized windows than no black windows using the alt-tab switcher. 4) Always get black windows with shift switcher if some applications are minimized (regardless of how many instances are in use) 5) Get black windows with alt-tab for applications with more than one instances in use and minimized AND only for those instances that restore to maximized windows. 6) One way to avoid ALL black windows would be to enable the scale addon in ccsm and use a hot corner to pick windows (i.e using Unity like Gnome Shell) There is no black window under any scenario. So, if I am switching Windows with the scale addon (like using gnome- shell) I am able to avoild black windows al together and even if I get a black window say in using alt-tab in scenario 5 moving the cursor to the hot corner to refocus the open black window would make it normal again. Since it doesn't look like this bug will be fixed this is the best I can do. By using mostly the hot corner I have restored normal work flow pretty much and haven't seen any black window for quite some time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1162954 Title: Nvdia blank black windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1162954/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Hmmm.. Just updated compiz and unity with Sam Spilsbury's ppa https://launchpad.net/~smspillaz/+archive/compiz- experimental?field.series_filter=raring Now the blank black windows don't appear (for applications with multiple instances in use but minimized) with the alt tab switcher provided the applications don't open to full screen. So suppose I have multiple pdf minimized and I try to select one of them with alt-tab, if I focus on an instance which opens to full screen I still see the blank blackscreen.

[Compiz] [Bug 1162954] Re: Nvdia blank black windows
Hi Andre, Since the compiz packages in 12.04 is rather old even if they fix the problem it will probably take a long time for them to backport it if at all. So I have basically given up waiting and use nouveau on my 12.04 installation. Following the thread (bugs 729979) I thought a fix has been released for Raring, but it seems that it doesn't really work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1162954 Title: Nvdia blank black windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1162954/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Compiz] [Bug 1162954] Re: Nvdia blank black windows
@Felipe I watched your video, no sure which DE you are using, but I have never had the black window problem if I use the mouse to choose applications from the launcher. The bug is triggered only when I use the alt-tab launcher(or the shift launcher) to choose among applications that are already in use, and with raring it only happens when more than one instances of the same applications are in use. e.g If Firefox (one instance), vlc (one instance) and two instances of evenice (2 pdf documents) are in use and all minimized. Using the alt-tab launcher to choose either Firefox or Vlc doesn't result in black windows, but focusing on either instance of evince will. I have replaced the default window decorator with emerald but it doesn't make a difference. The only thing that works for me is to disable animation from ccsm, but that result in abrupt motion when opening closing maximizing and minimizing windows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1162954 Title: Nvdia blank black windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1162954/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
