[Bug 985809] [NEW] Compiz scale/exposé flicker on first activation

 

Public bug reported:

When triggering scale or exposé (Super+W/S) for the first time after
login, there is a lot of flickering and then the windows/workspaces are
only partly shown. The view is generally unusable then. But when
activating them again, they both work fine. So it seems to be some sort
of instantiation issue.

Please let me know if you need additional information.
