Bug Description

After closing Google Chrome, I see a thin white strip at the top left corner of the desktop. The desktop looks fine after a fresh login, but sometimes when I close Chrome, this strip shows up and doesn't disappear till I logout. I don't know whether this is an issue with compiz or Unity.

P.S: Screenshot ( http://imagebin.org/207229 )
