I really think its an compiz bug, disabling the compiz animation plugin fixed it.
I had the same issue with Ubuntu Edgy and compiz, but never with beryl. Also I have the same effect when using an ATI x800 based video card and radeon or fglrx video drivers. I also suggest labeling this as a bug in compiz. Bug is not reproducable, leaving the PC idle for some time seems to increase the probability. I have subscribed this launchpad entry, so if I can do something for a developer (e.g. get logs or try patches), please post here. I also tried the Compiz version which is in gutsy-backports, but that did not help. -- Compiz Fusion in Gutsy Gibbon Beta -- Momentary Freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145800 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
