I have Xubuntu 16.04, fully updated, on a 64bit machine.

I had a screen tearing issue, so I installed compton for compositing. Then the issues began with frames showing up around gtk3 apps, such as transmission et al.

Neither this nor this helped.

The latter just made everything flat. No grapic goodies at all.

Any ideas what next?

Thanks,

It seems I did something wrong when trying the first of the aboveposted solutions. It works now!

So, what you need to do is:

edit the file ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css (if it doesn't exist, create it).

In it, paste:

.window-frame, .window-frame:backdrop {
 box-shadow: 0 0 0 black;
 border-style: none;
 margin: 0;
 border-radius: 0;
}

.titlebar {
 border-radius: 0;
}

Voila, the annoying glassed frames should be gone, and compton should render some nice eyecandy without glitches.
