[Bug 862430] Re: window flicker for a short time after switching workspaces

 

Sorry to chime in so late in the game.

1. Installed xubuntu 12.04 on 7/4/2013,and latest updates (I'm set up for LTS releases only).  
2. Installed compiz from synaptic, no special PPA, just the one available in synaptic.

Switching workspaces via mouse-based or keyboard-based cube-rotation
flashes the window(s) from the previous workspace for a splisecond on
the new workspace as soon as the cube stops.

Rotating with these same methods between two empty workspaces does not
show any flicker at all (each of my workspaces has a different
wallpaper, if it matters).

The ehavior was still present in Raring 13.04 when I experimented with
it only a week ago.

Switching via Expo does not show the problem at all (at least on my
end).

Given sogerc1's message above, about the version in vanvugt's ppa, I
don't see a point in downgrading.  Will patiently wait for 14.04,
assuming this will ever be fixed.
