Bug Description
When resuming from expo mode, sometimes a glitch is visible where windows on one monitor appear on the other, or maximized windows disappear, but only for one frame.

Also after returning I get windows are invisible. When I try to move mouse, updated elements in the windows stay visible, but not full window.
This bug is a regression, there was no this bug in 11.04.
I think it was appear with opportunity to hide windows when you move other windows in expo mode.
Also after returning windows are still in expo mode: they are stoned and only hiding to the panel and expanding them back helps.
And this bug is not only in Unity, but also in any DE with Compiz.
Hello Sam, or anyone else affected,
Accepted compiz-plugins-main into oneiric-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https:/
Is this a proper bug for dual-monitors users ?
I have all good here with a single Monitor.

Looks like this fix is missing upstream. Was only merged into an oneiric branch.
Why wasn't the fix merged into master? I am still seeing this issue, if I understand the description correctly.
I'm not convinced this is an issue upstream any more. Especially since bug 862430 is now fixed.
