Hi, If compiz is crashing then we need a crash report or stack trace of some sort to debug it.

I seem to have the same bug, only in a different setup, run xrdp as server on 12.04 64bit, connect with the default windows 7 remote desktop client.

[Bug 1003179] Re: compiz crashes after starting up vnc4server and then unity launcher is not displayed via vnc client
Affecting me too: I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Server on a 64bit machine. Unity 3D does not seem to work with VNC, and this may be affecting others too: http://kb.realvnc.com/questions/196/VNC+Server+in+Virtual+Mode+does+not+start+correctly+on+Ubuntu+12.04 My configuration: I installed ubuntu-desktop manually, and launch a single VNC session via xinetd. lightdm is my display manager. service vnc { disable = no socket_type = stream protocol= tcp wait= yes user= chanseok server = /usr/bin/Xvnc4 server_args = -inetd -once -localhost -query localhost -geometry 1280x1024 -depth 16 -PasswordFile /home/chanseok/.vnc/passwd -NeverShared -desktop Ubuntu } No matter which vnc viewer I use (RealVNC or SSL/SSH VNC), the default Unity (i.e., Unity 3D) session just gives a backdrop (as described in the above link too) without a launcher or a top menu bar. This useless state is also quite unstable, and from time to time, various crash notifications follows, and compiz is the frequent one. I found a workaround, though not perfect, by choosing unity-2d from the ligthdm login screen (or, as in the above link, forcing it by giving '-- session=ubuntu-2d'). However, although unity-2d brings up everything and works almost fine, there are several glitches, and this gives me the impression that VNC has certain limitations. This may be the reason that Unity 3D is not working under VNC. The glitches in unity-2d includes: (1) Launching 'System Settings' - 'Displays' gives an pop up with an error message Could not get screen information: RANDR extension is too old (must be at least 1.2)) and crashes. 'xrandr -v' in this unity-2d session returns 'xrandr program version 1.3.5', but 'Server reports RandR version 1.1'. (2) I must click and hold down the menus of the top menu bar to make it not disappear immediately. For example, to logout, I should click and hold down the power icon located at the topright corner and move the cursor to 'Log out...' and release it. There are other minor glitches too, but the above are the most annoying ones. I hope anyone finds this helpful. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1003179 Title: compiz crashes after starting up vnc4server and then unity launcher is not displayed via vnc client To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1003179/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Just to get the 32-bit machine out of the question, I just tested and have the same problem if I vnc from one of the 64-bit machines to the other 64-bit machines.
