This is mostly the same as I have experienced (and still do) on a Thinkpad x60s.
It all started after a "aptitude upgrade" sometime sunday (GMT+1) two weeks ago, and also after I (for other reasons) did a full reinstall with Gutsy (tribe5) yesterday. I'm not quite sure if it is totally random because it happens almost everytime I try to resize a xterm window with the mouse, cursor is then "looked" in "resize mode", but I can still move it. I can't remember to have seen this when not resizing a xterm. The only way I can get out of the "freeze" is by doing a hard shutdown (aka pulling the plug), when I start the computer again after that compiz is up but I have to do a "emerald --replace &" to get emerald up. I have not tried to ssh in while in "freeze", I can try that next time it happens, but as I consider "pulling the plug" a pretty fatal action I don't want to do it more than absolutely necessary. And yes it only happens with Compiz activated. -- random system freeze when desktop-effects activated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115283 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
