    Re: Title bars missing with Compiz

    Try checking to see if compiz-fusion and its various parts are still installed. That's what I just got finished doing, and, voila! title bars have returned.

    Be sure to grab a handy little desktop utility called fusion-icon, it runs in the system tray and makes reloading window decorators and desktop managers a breeze.
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install fusion-icon
    You will find this new program in:
    Applications>System Tools>Fusion Icon

    R-clicking the icon in the system tray located in the upper right corner of your monitor on a default Ubuntu(gnome) install, it looks like a little blue box, will bring up a menu, each submenu will offer you some options to play with, including but not limited to restarting your window decorator, as well as your desktop manager.

    GL and have fun.

    I re-installed compiz but that didn't help. After installing fusion-icon and switching to Metacity and back to Compiz gave me title bars! I can't understand why installing the icon would help, but either way now I have title bars, yay!

    Thanks for the help everyone!

    I just wanted to add that I fixed the title bar issue on another laptop simply by installing fusion-icon . . .
