I think more importantly, what video card are you using - let me guess,
NVidia? There has been a problem with this for ages, since the old
compiz,  through beryl, and now into Compiz-Fusion (Which ubuntu calls
Advanced Desktop Effects)

There have been many a work-around in the past,some which still work,
some dont.

There general consensus seems to be to edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
file,  find the device sections add add the two "AddRGb...."'s as
follows:

//
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Generic Video Card"
        Driver          "nvidia"
        Busid           "PCI:1:0:0"
        Option          "AddARGBVisuals"        "True"
        Option          "AddARGBGLXVisuals"     "True"
EndSection
//

I give that about a 10% chance of working (sorry)... however, and this is the 
part that i throw out the the community... in beryl-manager
there was an option to set something to "copy". Can't remember what 
it was, but it worked. Does anyone know what i'm talking about,or if
there is a similar option somewhere in compiz?
