Annoying white rectangles keep appearing in the Ubuntu Menu. I've tried installing fglrx, it didn't solve the problem, but raised performance issues, so I've gone back to the supplied open source driver.

I loved the desktop zoom in older Ubuntu releases, I've tried to enable it in CompizConfig, turned out to be buggy and that's why it's not supported. :( Will there be a support added in the future?
Another thing, that would be nice if apps could be dragged from the Launcher or the Ubuntu Menu to the desktop.

My system:
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core 2.5 GHz
RAM: 2 GB DDR2
Video: AMD Radeon HD4830 512 MB
OS: Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal)

Graphical glitches everywhere

Spotify glitch on display
Boxee looping

missing scroll bars
missing windows border
missing minise and close (apple mac menu is horrible to use on apple why put it on this?)

Reset mine back to classic Ubuntu (in the login screen - administration, login screen, unlock, settings, ubuntu classic).

Updating fglrx seems to solve the problem, but Compiz effects become slow and sluggish.

i ended up making a launcher with
this "compiz --replace" threw it
on my desktop with a nice icon
now whenever it crashes i can quickly
reload compiz and continue on as normal
