I can confirm this bug too. Compiz freezes randomly, but i found a way to enforce the freeze: (1) open gnome-terminal (2) $gedit & (3) ALT-TAB back to terminal (4) $gedit & At this point the freeze occurs, but not yet completely. The display freeze, but keyboard is reacts normal, as i see in gedit after i killed compiz.real. I can also Ctrl-Alt-Fn and see there that compiz.real is running with cpu 99%. I can move the mouse and the pointer changes (normal-pointer, text-pointer, sizing-pointer, ...), but (5) Mouse-Click And now freeze is complete. I can move the mouse pointer, but it does not change. Alt-SysRq+K is the only way to kill the X server and after login i have compiz.real two times and after killing the one running at 99% everything is normal (until next freeze)
