When compiz is enabled and files are being dragged to/from a nautilus
window, the desktop will freeze if the nautilus window in list mode is
horizontally scrollable. Steps to replicate on my system:

1) Enable compiz. Exact settings seem to be irrelevant. I disabled them all and 
the problem was still evident.
2) Open a nautilus  window containing some icons.
3) Enable list mode. 
4) Ensure there are enough columns of information such that horizontal 
scrolling of the window would be require to see them all.
5) Begin to drag an icon.
6) The desktop will *almost* freeze. Some small and intermittent mouse movement 
may occur. However, the only way to rectify the situation is via a force kill 
of X (e.g., alt - sys req - k).

Repeating the above steps except with step 4 having no horizontal
scrolling will not entice the problem.

The system is Unbuntu 8.04 with all updates as of the date of this bug.
Video card is nvidia. Default kernel (2.6.24-16-generic) and nvidia
drivers (169.12).  compiz-core 1:0.7.4-0ubuntu6. nautilus
1:2.22.2-0ubuntu4.

This problem is not related to the compiz "reflection" plug-in as
reflection was disabled for both tests.
