I am replying as the "bug opener". I can't obviously make anything out of your logs, but I am reporting here what MAY be the permanent solution (or was for me). I was waiting to publish it here or on a thread over at ubuntu forums because I'd like to go a little more days to see if it sticks in place.
Anyway, purging *compiz* from synaptic, removing compiz ppa (in your case, you don't seem to have one, but install ubuntu-tweak and go into the purge section, you never know) then reinstalling, appeared to solve temporarily, but I always got the effects being disabled. I also had x-updates ppa active, but I had already disabled it, and tried the ppa-purge package off the official repositories, which told me he didn't find any reference whatsoever to packages from x-updates; in the meantime I kept having the probems. Anyway, that's when I discovered ubuntu.tweak had its own ppa purge function, at which point I purged the system for x-updates, and it actually downloaded the "vanilla" X packaged and installed them over the x-updates ones. After which my comèpiz has been working smooth ever since (couple of workdays, maybe too soon to say for sure). I occasionally had the "window maximize/minimize/close buttons disappeared" issue, that happened a few times... but it only took a logout/login to get it solved (?). Bottomline, I have vanilla compiz and vanilla X drivers packages now. -- "Extra" visual effects are reverted to "none" at random or when going into compiz settings manager https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/663788 You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
