Sounds like an error starting compiz. If your menus aren't wobbly when you 
use them then there's something stopping compiz running. Try opening a 
console window and typing compiz --replace

If there's a problem then compiz will tell you why it doesn't want to 
work. You can type "metacity &" to get a window manager back again.

If your menus are wobbly but you have no window borders, type 
"gnome-window-decorator &" in a console and see if they appear.
