I installed the NVIDIA drivers from their website (btw, for the rest of the noobs out there: Ctrl+Alt+F1 [then] sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop will stop X server so you can install nvidia drivers). I am still getting weird shadow effects. If I play with the shadow settings (especially the radius slider) I can randomly (I don't choose the color, it just happens regardless of what I select) get pink, green, egg-white, and no shadows. It seems like the offset and opacity/radius actually work. I am running Compiz WITHOUT xgl. If I use xgl, the shadows work fine. However.... if I use xgl, I can't use vmware because of another bug with that (console screen is just black with xgl). 8800GTS -- Pink shadows with Compiz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/194851 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
