F16 KDE some window themes cause jumping!

I was using the aeroambience window theme and when I would hover over the windows grab bar the mouse pointer changed to resize no matter where I placed it. I then tried some other window themes and they did the resize thing with only half the the grab bar and gave me the move option with the other half, but when I moved the windows they jumped to the top left corner. This problem seems to only happen with themes that support transparency all other windows work normally. I tried completely disabling the desktop effects and rebooting, but no luck.
I upgraded to F16 from F15 last night with preupgrade and made sure no orphans where left on the system. Maybe I need to install some graphics drivers.

Same problem here with any of the aurorae window decorations. Very annoying. Can reproduce in virtualbox so don't thinks it's a graphic driver problem.

Using a non-default KDE theme, I also have this problem. Does someone have a solution except using a default KDE theme?

You won't like this but I've never had any luck with Aurorae themes, especially Aeroambience.

In fact, even the default Oxygen theme can cause moving and resizing problems (for me anyway). I just had to settle with enabling the included Plastik decoration, which is simple and lightweight and give it a custom colour

I have just done a reinstall of F16 KDE and the same problem exists, so this is not a result of pre-upgrade.

An update seems to have fixed this for me, so I am marking this thread as solved. Please post if this problem still exist with your system after updating.
