Q: 

Shadows under windows in Ubuntu: How are they accomplished?

Hi,

There are shadows under all the windows in Ubuntu. My question is, is this done through X11, Compiz, GTK+, or otherwise?

Thanks!

A: 

The shadows are drawn by your window manager. This is probably Compiz in your case, but Metacity also draws shadows.
