I had the same problem. it ended up being a problem with the nvidia driver (I have nvidia Geforce GT 540M)
solved it by install bumblebee: sud apt-get remove nvidia-current sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install bumblebee bumblebee-nvidia hope it works for you as well -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1068571 Title: Upgrade from 12.04 -> 12.10.
