Public bug reported: I upgraded to the nvidia 302.11 drivers to test out xrandr functionality on my MacbookPro3,1. I found that compiz crashes on resume from suspend with these drivers. This is reliably reproducible on my system (8600M GT).
To reproduce: 1) Purge nvidia-current and nvidia-settings 2) Install nvidia-current 302.11-0ubuntu1~xedgers~precise2 and nvidia-settings 302.11-0ubuntu1~xedgers~precise1 from the xorg edgers PPA: https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa 3) Reboot. The machine boots normally 4) Suspend the machine 5) Wake from suspend Expected results: Machine resumes to the lightdm unlock screen Actual results: Screen turns on but remains black; mouse cursor appears. Mouse cursor flashes rapidly (5-10Hz). The system stays in this state for at least a minute. While the system was in this state I switched to another VT to login and poke around. I saw that there was a compiz segfault at the time of resume noted in dmesg, and compiz was not running. The system may recover to a lightdm login prompt without intervention, allowing you to login to your running apps. If this works, unity may not be running - you may be prompted by apport that compiz crashed. dmesg output: [10586.962722] compiz[5427]: segfault at 0 ip 00000000408ebd72 sp 00007fff5ee4ddc8 error 4 in glmOpzJd (deleted)[408ea000+2000] syslog: Jun 4 09:06:25 steve-laptop gnome-session[1998]: WARNING: Application 'compiz.desktop' killed by signal Jun 4 09:06:25 steve-laptop gnome-session[1998]: WARNING: App 'compiz.desktop' respawning too quickly Jun 4 09:06:25 steve-laptop gnome-session[1998]: CRITICAL: We failed, but the fail whale is dead.
