In a previous post i asserted that turning off gnome-screensaver stops these crashes from happening. This turns out not to be the case. Unfortunately, I am having trouble capturing an xtrace of the crash -- it almost seems as if xtrace itself somehow protects the driver from the crash! -- anyway, I'm finding that I can sometimes recover from the crash by switching to VT1 and running
DISPLAY=:0 unity DISPLAY=:0 xtrace compiz --replace > ~/trace.txt But usually I'll end up with some problems, like all window management being switched off so that it seems as though compiz isn't running at all. And sometimes this attempt at recovery will fail almost completely, in that I just end up with an unchanging image of my desktop wallpaper (sometimes the active windows will flash briefly when I switch to VT7, then disappear behind the wallpaper. I'm really not sure what the next steps in diagnosis are, htough I'll keep trying to capture an xtrace. This is on a Lenovo Thikpad T410, wiht intel graphics & (of course) the i965 driver.
