[Bug 89222] Re: compiz only refreshes part of desktop/root window width, leaves ghosts in remaining area

[Chris Halse Rogers]

This sounds a *lot* like you've passed "SKIP_CHECKS=1" to compiz.  This
*is* a limitation of your card - the maximum texture size is 2048x2048,
and compiz represents each window as a texture.  Since the desktop
window is bigger than the maximum texture size, you get wierdness.

Compiz *should* be refusing to start for you.  If you've told it to
SKIP_CHECKS, then you've only got yourself to blame.  If you haven't,
then it would be a bug that it isn't refusing to start.  There may also
be a bug in that compiz won't be disabled when you dynamically add a
second monitor - I'm not sure if this is handled.

Could you attach the contents of your /etc/xdg/compiz directory and any
~/.config/compiz directory you may have?
