Bug Description

When minimizing windowed applications, the animation sometimes jumps wildly around, mostly to the top left corner of the screen. I found a temporary workaround with a config file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf, which supposedly has some other unwanted effects on other programs. Thanks for your help!!
