Public bug reported:

when I play trine / trine2 / shadowgrounds / shadowgrounds survivior /
oil rush / amnesia the dark decent while compiz enabled, they suffer
heavily from video lag, lowering the graphics will not work! it happens
every time since I upgraded my pc to ubuntu 12.04 beta2

logging in to gnome-classic (no-effects) is my current workaround to
play these games, games like xonotic / open-arena / cogs and most wine-
games are not effected by this bug...

my laptop also doesn't suffer from this bug but that's explainable since
my laptop has an optimus-card, so compiz runs on an intel HD3000 while
the games run on my Nvidia-GT540M. so the games are not affected by
compiz...

most people will disagree with me, but I don't want to log-out unity and
log back into the gnome-panel environment every time I want to play a
game...
