Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz-plugins-main

In natty, /usr/share/compiz/animation.xml contains two typos I can see, which result in the intended default animations never being used. This is part of the cause of the "clunky" default user experience I described in bug 793876.

The typos are:

Note: You can find these config mistakes graphically using CCSM. Just look around for "N/A" values under Animations. "N/A" seems to mean the value set in the XML file is invalid.
