Public bug reported: If the Visual Effects are set to either "Normal" or "Extra" in Appearance, subsequently unable to click in the foreground on buttons on windows such as "close" etc. Can't select items from Synaptic Package Manager. Menu selections appear unaffected. Setting the Visual Effects back to "None" restores operation. Normal operation is also achieved if system started with "Failsafe Gnome". This was working earlier today, and may possibly be due to recent updates loaded onto the system.
Have tried re-installing both GDM and Compiz, but same problem persists.
