I also have just experienced this problem, enabled magnifier from compizconfig-settings-manager in intrepid and crashed the x server.
When I rebooted the computer it would get to the login screen and when I tried to login would then crash and go back to login screen. I managed to back into my user account by first remove all the compiz stuff through the terminal: sudo apt-get remove compiz-core compiz-fusion-plugins-extra compiz- fusion-plugins-main compiz-gnome compizconfig-settings-manager libcompizconfig0 libdecoration0 compizconfig-settings-manager python- compizconfig emerald I was then able to log into the user account and re-install all the compiz stuff. Before enabling any effect though I first made sure that magnifier was disabled form the compizconfig-settings-manager. I am also using an Intel 945GM chipset - if that is significant -- magnifier plugin in compiz make X crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276311 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
