Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 11.10
Release: 11.10
Unity: 4.28.0-0ubuntu1
60% of the time Unity crashes whilst using alt-tab. Found this in the
log viewer:
kernel: [ 73.464371] compiz[1961]: segfault at 3e1cb7bf ip b47710e7 sp
bfd04230 error 4 in libunityshell.so[b45ef000+20e000]
gnome-session[1885]: WARNING: Application 'compiz.desktop' killed by signal
gnome-session[1885]: WARNING: App 'compiz.desktop' respawning too quickly
gnome-session[1885]: CRITICAL: We failed, but the fail whale is dead. Sorry....
At that point Unity failed to restart, had to hard reset since all the panels /
window decorations were dead. Previous version of Unity and alt-tab did not
cause this behaviour.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Press alt-tab on a newly booted system
Expected results:
Alt-tab window switcher appears
Actual results:
Occasionally unity crashes. Sometime unrecoverably. Can not consistently
reproduce this. Happens about 60% of the time.
