that happens if the start menu is not opened. this normal or can i fix this? i like to have the task bar on bottom and able to see the ubuntu desktop under it not have that

Are you running Compiz? I find that the seamless mode is a bit dodgy with that running.

Id second what fishfishfish said, its even worse if you hav dual screens

But try downloading compiz switch and change window manager to metacity when you want to use seamless mode and you should be ok

Just open up System -> Preferences -> Appearance and in the Visual Effects tab select None.
