Just to echo the others: an hour of testing in, and I've nothing but joy
to report. This patch makes Compiz/Gnome-Fallback usable. Things behave
as you would expect: windows aren't jumping all over the place or
getting stuck, and, per the other bug, the panel isn't getting in the
way of fullscreen applications.

@monjurul@88 it's a bit hectic:

sudo apt-get build-dep compiz
sudo apt-get install devscripts
wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/974242/+attachment/3141645/+files/fix-974242.patch
apt-get source compiz
cd compiz* # you might want to replace the *
patch -p1 < ~/Desktop/fix-974242.patch
dpkg-source --commit
debuild -us -uc

That should dump a whole collection of debs in `..`. After that just
install the ones you need with `dpkg -i`.

If you're using nvidia (pointedly the xorg-edgers PPA version) you might
have problems compiling things that link to /usr/lib/libGL.so* so I just
moved those files to my desktop, ran the `debuild -us -uc` command again
and after that, moved the libGL files back.

The bigger question is, how do we go about nominating this patch for
immediate inclusion in Ubuntu so people aren't forced to download half a
gig just to compile this in?
