[Bug 876198] Re: When switching workspaces with rotate/cube previous Ws contents are momentarily displayed

 

** Description changed:

  this started appearing right after the release of unity-4.20.0-0ubuntu1
  The symptoms are pretty much the same as seen in this bug though the issue with the workspace switcher(expo) started a bit earlier & at that point rotate/cube was still ok
  bug 861088
  The above bug seems to have been fixed with compiz-1:0.9.6+bzr20110929-0ubuntu4/5 but the issue remains when using rotate/cube instead of wall
  
- The flashing is seen in all means of switching with rotate, ie. crtl+alt=arrow keys, scroll on desktop, ect.
- It's possible that this is confined to nvidia, other commeters can confirm that one way or the other
