I ran into the issue after making a machine headless and moving it so had to disable desktop effects in the terminal. Todo this you use the two commands below then restart. gconftool -s -t string /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/current /usr/bin/metacity gconftool -s -t string /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/default /usr/bin/metacity -- Compiz / vnc screen refresh with nvidia-restricted driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353126 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
