[Bug 682986] [NEW] borders and panels disappears whenever appearance is changed

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

im not sure exactly whats wrong but it seems to be dealing with gnome,
unity, and compiz...where no matter the kind of appearance change i do
ether by using the compiz settings manger or the appearance preference.
The borders end up disappearing along with the panels, which also makes
it were your limited in what you can do until you log out and then log
back in

also i could not report it while the borders and panels are missing for
some reason and if i didnt have Avant Window Navigator i would have had
to do a hard reboot.

also i did manually install the nvidia driver but i ended up removing it
and installing through the Additional Drivers
