[Compiz] [Bug 1360024] Re: Compiz crashes after latest update. Desktop environment completely inaccessible
Well, this is peculiar. I can now see my login screen, enter my password and I get the proper background going. Compiz and Unity however still crash. I have Guake Terminal as an auto-start app and so I am able to get access to a terminal as well. CTRL+T does not work. The curious thing is, I am able to start apps from the terminal and they open. Their windows however do not have their title bars and can only be closed by terminating the terminal command. Also, my NVidia card seems to do its job. It does not make any weird sounds and the fans are quite. All the animations are smooth as well. This implies that the driver is performing well. There are no errors or anything like that. The only error log that pops up as soon as the UI(by which I mean my background) loads is the compiz crash. It lists the main reason for the crash as - .proc.driver.nvidia.gpus.0: Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0' ...Compiz seems to think my GPU is a folder :D but everything else seems to be working fine. So, I do not think it is an NVidia driver issue. The driver seems to be working fine for everything else I have installed, except for when compiz needs it. Could compiz be sending some request that is no longer supported by the driver? Or maybe some implementation have changed in the latest driver version? Is there a way to further investigate this problem?

Seems to be a recent issue caused by the Nvidia drivers. A crash is occurring in libGL.so which will cause Compiz to not run. >From CurrentDmsg.txt: [ 16.486256] compiz[2361]: segfault at 18 ip 7f1be7185350 sp 7fff286a8f10 error 4 in libGL.so.1.2.0[7f1be7148000+63000] Not much we can do about this since libGL.so is in the Nvidia binary. ** Also affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-331 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- 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/1360024 Title: Compiz crashes after latest update.
