Public bug reported: xorg freezes or malfunctions with desktop environments that use 3D with 3d and desktop effects on ubuntu 12.04. In alpha through beta 2, I didn't have this problem. Anyway in Unity 3D, Cinnamon, and gnome classic session (excluding "No Effects) I experience this problem. This problem does not occur in MATE, Unity 2D and GNOME Classic (No Effects).
