Title:
  [nvidia] Window manager does not start, must run compiz --replace

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  After upgrading to 10.04 from 9.10, no window manager is started when
  I login to GNOME via GDM. The applications in my startup items do
  launch, but they have no window decoration and I cannot switch input
  to any of them. To fix this, I have to switch to the console and run
  'compiz --replace' to get a window manager.

  If I choose "Failsafe GNOME" from the login window, I get a window
  manager.

  This did not happen with Ubuntu 9.10
