I get a similar compiz error on amd64. In my case, booting 3.16.0.6 kernels or before work fine.
Booting amd64 3.16.0-7, -8, -9, -10 kernels on the same install the desktop runs but compiz hence unity do not. Booting the newer .iso the live session fails the same way. Follow through with the install and of course compiz etc. fail. booting the 3.16.0-6 amd64 .iso runs fine. I don't know if it is the same install are the different kernels chosen out of /boot using the same Intel video driver? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1359299 Do note, i386 32 bit 3.16.0-10 install and kernel on the same pc run fine (for a development version). How different is the 32 bit and the 64 bit compiz? Of course, amd64 Lubuntu runs fine. Lubuntu doesn't use compiz I think. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1357746 Title: Compiz fails to load with xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.914-1~exp1ubuntu1 on some Intel hardware To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1357746/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
