CD Live Intrepid has been too big to fit on a 700 mb CD for the last 3
days so I did this test:

1.  Boot installed Intrepid with compiz removed but with all the latest updates 
from the internet.  O.K.
2.  sudo apt-get install compiz.  Note, Visual Effects are set to none.  Still 
running.
3.  Restart, with all the latest updates but with compiz installed in step 2.  
X comes up, orange screen, and laptop is totally hung up with no keyboard 
response except power off.  Won't boot even with Visual Effects previously set 
to none.
4.  Restart in rescue mode, remove compiz, normal boot O.K. without compiz.
5.  Happened to have a Gutsy Ubuntu CD Live handy which booted fine, Visual 
Effects Normal run fine.  

This laptop is dual booted with Alpha 5 NOT UPDATED so I can get the
failure with latest updated Beta then boot the Alpha 5 to look at logs &
messages from the beta if someone would tell me what is significant in
addition to all comments above.  I don't think this is a failure of this
particular laptop alone by scanning the Intrepid Ibex forums there are
several posts with similar failures, some of whom have removed compiz
with some benefit.

Thanks for your attention, Jerry
