on the Ubuntu login screen at the bottom (after you click your name),
you can choose to log in NOT in Unity version ("Ubuntu"), but instead in
"Ubuntu Classic" or "Ubuntu Classic (no effects)". I tried this, and
anki is working fine on both Classic and Classic (no effects). this
suggests to me that the problem is with compiz (since I did not have to
install python-qt from source to get it to work, but simply switch to a
desktop that doesn't use compiz. although...i guess the problem could be
that python-qt is the culprit in how it interacts with compiz...). I
tried going into Unity desktop and open CompizConfig Settings Manager
and disabled the "Effects" like "Animation", but that messes up the
interface (panel, launcher, etc, disappear).

unfortunately, in the next release of Ubuntu (11.10), there will not be
any "Ubuntu Classic" option anymore. hopefully this will be resolved in
compiz and/or pyqt by then. otherwise, i guess for most people, they'll
have install another desktop like Kubuntu, Lubuntu, etc in order to use
anki until this is fixed.
