Comment 24 for bug 631664

@martin: Thanks that works for me as well (desktop effects - just turned them OFF* and my calendar now sits neatly just above the clock and not half off the screen.. *Ubuntu Menu/System/Preferences/Appearance/Visual Effects)

BUT every time I boot the computer it will go back to natural visual effects (and I have the problem again), is there a way to change it permanently to visual effects NONE?
