[SOLVED] Window title bars appearing offscreen
Hi,
I am using Kubuntu but a lot of window title bars have been appearing off screen meaning I cannot move the window around. This is highly annoying. I know i can press alt+c and click the window to move it around but for some windows this closes them or erases stuff. Is it possible to change this combination? Is there a way to stop windows appearing off screen?
I am using Compiz.
Help is appreciated.

The window decorator is set on compiz somehow its not loaded correctly
replace it with kde-window-decorator
# kde-window-decorator --replace

Open /etc/X11/xorg.conf file with root privileges and edit Section "Device" of Video Card.
Save file and Reboot machine.Code:Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "xxxxx" Option "AddARGBVisuals" "True" Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" EndSection
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.
