I don't love the command line but after thrashing around this bug for two months it's simpler than cranking up Synaptic doing a search, flipping thru windows, selecting this that and the other. Lot of mouse clicks keystrokes. Anyway I presume the new build isn't in the repositories yet because

Installing Compiz again as well as the other proposed packages, with intrepid-proposed checked, did not change the situation: enabling Normal desktop effects (System Preferences Appearance) still causes the X session to freeze (keyboard stops responding, windows and panels disappear, and the

Forgive, but I am not sure if intrepid-proposed/updates will be in effect for people upgrading rather than fresh install. If the fix will not be in place, then the release notes should address upgraders as well. (maybe reboot to safe graphics mode...) Can't test the fix at present as I don't

My machine is an HP Pavilion minitower, not a laptop. The model number is A210N. Not sure how this might relate to the release notes text, maybe just add '...and some older desktops' to it. (It is about... 5 years old, I guess. How time flies.) The maintainer(?) for the video card driver should
