That didn't seem to fix anything for me, I'm running 64bit ver.
I also ran into another problem, if I try to run a terminal I just get a
white box, the console never shows up.
I'm sure this has more to do with the nvidia driver and compiz not sure
if it needs to be filed or not.


I'm still getting the missing borders too.  Noticed that the AddARGBGLXVisuals failed
if the default depth was set to anything lower than 24 in the screen section.
