I have same problem in 11.04.
I solved it by re-installing Compiz.

Type your password if requested (nothing will show up for privacy), type Y and hit Enter if it asks you for confirmation

When that task is done, or if it failed because it wasn't installed in the first place, type, sudo apt-get install compiz and hit enter/return. Follow the same steps as you did to remove it.
