Public bug reported:
I gather the issue is with compiz because
compiz --replace
takes care of some random crashes and flickering.
Another solution is to edit
/usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/ubuntu-2d.session
so that on the line that reads
DefaultProvider-windowmanager=
metacity
is replaced with
compiz
Hardware
First generation (2006) Intel MacBook Pro (Intel Core Duo, aka Yonah based
processor) with an ATI Mbility Radeon X1600 video card.
