Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

If I open a gnome-terminal and select fullscreen mode on gutsy, the terminal part of the screen is blank until I click on it, and at that point the text on the terminal screen appears. My driver is Intel. Confirmed with/by the compiz sprinters at Millbank.

I observed this bug after an upgrade a day or so ago. A recent upgrade has fixed it for me now (Intel driver too).

Description of error: Run a gnome-terminal, press F11 and the gnome-terminal goes fullscreen. If compiz is disabled (from the appearances application) this error is fixed.

Actually, there is no way at all to show the text while it's in fullscreen mode

Reopening. This is not fixed at all. Just open a terminal and F11. You can't see the text until you click on the terminal.
