Hew is correct, from what I can tell there are two errors here.

First - there is a problem with deskcasting with istanbul with the "Record Sound" option enabled. This bug, as far as I can tell, is 100% reproducible in the current version of Ubuntu (8.10). All errors regarding this bug, (and this bug only) should go in this bug report.

Second - there is a bug that arises from using istanbul with desktop effects enabled. I *can* reproduce this bug if I *do not* have the "Record 3D" option enabled. If I enable "Record 3D", istanbul works fine. This probably has something to do with istanbul not recognizing ANY GPU output when this option is not enabled, and having problems with the 2D acceleration used for compiz effects. Comments on this bug should into newly created bug bug 307827 .

Keeping these two problems separated helps cut down on the confusion and provides developers with more information to help fix the problem. Thanks for taking the time to help make Ubuntu better!
