get rid of the awful window corners in xfwm4

[Ondrej Mihalyi]

Thanks for advice,

this one helped.  I tried to eliminate unnecessary Xserver modules to increase start up speed not knowing what they're for, and up to now I didn't have time to find out.  I'll have to fidn some time to learn about the modules

Thanks a lot once more
