--- Comment #4 from Forest <fores...@sonic.net> ---
I may be experiencing the same problem. When it happens:

- I can still move the mouse pointer.
- Mouse clicks and drags are ignored.
- Nothing other than the mouse pointer changes on-screen.
- Keyboard input still works (shortcuts, typing text, etc.) but since no screen
updates happen, it looks like nothing is happening.
- Switching virtual consoles Control+Alt+F8/F7 does not clear the problem.

I cannot reproduce it on demand, but when it happens, it's always when an
application disables the compositor, such as when a video player switches to
full screen.

I can regain control of my desktop by manually re-enabling the compositor with
Shift+Alt+F12.

However, once the bad state has been triggered once, every subsequent attempt
to disable the compositor (either by an app or with Shift+Alt+F12) freezes the
desktop again.

If I reboot, the compositor can once again be switched off or on without any
trouble, until the problem appears again. That might take hours or days.
