I had the same problem with Hardy Beta with an mx440 based card (Dell/nVidia P117) and after switching to the nvidia new driver from the repository, rebooting and reconfiguring my settings via the screens and graphics applet I was able to turn on effects but lost window borders.
When I tried sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals it worked for me although I had to reboot afterwards. -- window borders disappear with enhanced visual effects turned on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179773 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
