Your desktop environment is GNOME 3? What windows manager do you use? I
suspect the default, but not everybody knows what the default for wheezy
is. At least I don't know.
I don't have any issue using squeeze, but on Arch (a rolling release =
always upgraded to latest version) for Xfce4 for example (no 3D windows
manager), Evolution has a borked color theme, perhaps such effects
encounter for Debian testing now too.
The freedom to use what ever DE, with what ever apps on Linux is bygone.
GNOME 3 stuff does follow a little bit the MS/Apple approach :p.
