Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: compiz-gnome
This is Ubuntu 8.04.1. When you choose to use the largest available
mouse cursor size AND one of two standard cursors with alpha blending
you get distortions in window decoration (title bars etc.) I can
personally confirm this bug on NVidia 6600, 8800, 9600 GSO, 8400, Intel
i910, Intel G33, AMD Ati Radeon 3450. This probabaly means that it's not
a driver bug. Also, I see this bug in all Ubuntu versions starting from
6.06 with a manually installed Beryl.
I attach a video of these effects.
Exact steps to reproduce:
1. Have compiz configured.
2. Enable "wobbly windows" plugin (System -> Preferences -> Appearance ->
Visual Effects -> Extra). This is not required but will demonstrate the bug
more easily.
3. Choose a big transparent cursor in default theme
a) System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Theme,
b) choose "Human"
c) then press "Customize..." button
d) go to Pointer tab and choose "whiteglass" or "redglass", then move the
"Size" slider all the way to the right ("Large").
4. Log out and log in back to gnome.
5. Try to move or resize some windows.
