Affects me every time I log in. The effect is that upper panel in Gnome Flashback with Compiz is blurred and I can't access the functions placed there.

Maybe it's a little late to comment here, but bug #1273014 have nothing to do with "Gnome Flashback & Compiz" the same as with the other users I have this problem since 12.04 and everytime (read my profile or Launchpad-blog)... It' s a hard time if your computer will change his start-up with the craziest ideas your never mentioned before. Sometimes I think it's in the hardware (Intel i7 Quad Core) and other times I think, who is here the dumm guy. I install all my installations with help from Linux-specialist near my living 12km from my home in the Netherlands (also disabled).
I'm no Linux/Unix-specialist, but have 32-year experience wirh Windows-computers, so we two installers are not the dumm guys, only when a computer change his/her mind before or after grub and all white lines are listed on black background as fast it is going over my screen and is half way stopping with an error message.... Once I tried (in 12.04) the Ubuntu rescue cd, but it's better to install every time a new installation on your computer than to take other solutions, but a fix for this bug I think nobody will find a solution.
Sorry for my English translation, I learned it 43-years ago, I use dictionaries when I'm not to tired), I do my best...pfff.
After all crazy Windows years, Ubuntu is still my OS and happyness for the future.
