Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I have beryl installed to be the default window manager on two
computers, both installed by using the instructions in the howto
(http://wiki.beryl-
project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Feisty_with_AIGLX). One is
using an ATI Radeon 7500 with the ati driver and aiglx, the other is
using an Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML with the i810 driver
and aiglx.

Last night after doing a dist-upgrade, both computers freeze upon
starting beryl. Restarting the window manager causes the icons that
should have started flashing briefly before closing (so when the window
manager is turned off, everything returns to normal.

Starting with the default metacity window manager worked fine.

Starting beryl from the command line after starting with metacity caused
the windows to freeze, but ctl-C-ing the process returned the system to
a working state (although metacity then needed to be restarted).

** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
