VNC/RDP Not Refreshing On Ubuntu

When I use VNC Client to remote desktop onto my Ubuntu 10.04 I got the background and maybe even the Gnome panel but the windows and programs were not appearing on the screen. However my mouse and clipboard was still working so I had ended up VNC’ing to the box and switching the display to another source.
To fix this problem just disable the visual desktop effects under System > Preferences > Appearance Under the Visual Effects tab set it to None.
