What version is the metacity source you want to compile and where did you get it?

Open src/core/screen.c and go to the meta_screen_ensure_tab_popup function (line ~1250). About 40 lines from the start of that function, change
win_pixbuf = get_window_pixbuf (window, &width, &height);


to


win_pixbuf = NULL;

i think that is a shadow problem. i dont know what will i do.

i find the problem. in ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file was:

gtk-menu-popup-delay = 0

i change it line:

gtk-menu-popup-delay = 50

now there is no problem :)

thanks to alll...
