Public bug reported:
Pressing the meta key causes the whole desktop to freeze, compiz use
100% cpu, etc. it actually tries to open the launcher, but ends up
wrecking the display. It's using the nvidia-current-updates driver:

Kernel driver in use: nvidia
Kernel modules: nvidia_current_updates, nouveau, nvidiafb
but I've tried the nvidia.com driver and the nvidia-current driver as well,
none work. nouveau seems to work better (when I can figure out how to get it
to load), but then no 3d acceleration.
