titlebar display problem
This is very weird to me, but also very true. Apparently a combination of having an nvidia driver when trying to use the default theme in Ubuntu (the Human theme) results in some display problems with the titlebar of some windows.
I was experiencing this problem at home after upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10. There were two solutions that I found to this problem. The first one, that I didn’t try, can be found here. This solution is a little complicated involving things like downloading and installing the beta release version of an nvidia driver and changing some configuration settings. The second solution I found was simpler, use a theme other than Human.
I really do enjoy the Human theme, but until I have the time and desire to do something a little more frustrating, I will just stick with the blue Clearlooks theme.
