** Description changed: Binary package hint: compiz Since the last version, compiz randomly freezes X (only mouse cursor is alive). System remains operational (I was watching a movie once when that happened - I could hear it going on), but you can't even switch to console. This happens randomly, but very often when something 3D is happening. When I turn off desktop effects, there is no such freeze, even when playing 3D games for a long time. Hardware: GeForce 8600 GT (rev a1), driver: nvidia-glx-new (Ubuntu package) + + How to recover without hard reset: + Press Alt+SysReq+R to get the keyboard working again + CTRL+ALT+F1 to switch to console + pkill -9 compiz.real + will cause your X Server to restart. + All open apps will be killed, unsaved data will be lost!
