Some additional info: I can confirm compiz is causing the lockup. I installed compiz under the xubuntu jaunty live cd. When I ran "compiz --replace" compiz gave the usual "Checking for ..." output, followed by the error: /usr/bin/compiz: 455: /usr/local/bin/compiz: not found exec: 455: /usr/bin/xfwm: not found After which xubuntu kept running without problems
Then I ran "sudo compiz --replace" and the system locked up in exactly the same way as gnome and kde do: the desktop background is visible and the mouse can be moved around, but the system is locked. Finally, after a reboot and mounting my hard drive, i tried to capture the output of "sudo compiz --replace > /mnt/sda3/out 2> /mnt/sda3/err". Of course, the live cd locked up, and when I rebooted from my hard disk I found the following from the standard output: Checking for Xgl: not present. xset q doesn't reveal the location of the log file.
