I'm having this odd behavior of windows in Ubuntu 11.04<br>
<br>
Sometimes they will not display. I get a border and white.<br></blockquote><div><br>I've seen this type of behavior when using 3D acceleration with an ATI card I had awhile ago. It seemed to be pretty common at that time to experience this when using something like Compiz. The solution I used back then, if I remember correctly, was to do what you described or restart X, neither of which is optimal. I would also try, if you have 3D acceleration and settings enabled, to apt-get compizconfig-settings-manager and maybe turn some of the effects off/down. That may atleast lower the frequency of this occurring. <br>
