This is NOT just an NVIDIA (driver) issue.

I'll experiment with the xorg advice from the links above, but I don't
expect it to change anything.

I see the same problems using Intel graphics (on-board Intel chipset),
running Beryl (or Desktop Effects), in both Fedora 7 and Ubuntu 7.04

I first noticed the "missing Titlebar" issue, when I first ran Desktop
Effects in either OS.

I filed a bug report:
