I think the following should work to disable compiz to get back to normal desktop again: 1) ctrl-alt-F1 to get to bash prompt, and login 2) sudo pico /etc/X11/xorg.conf 3) Add the following: Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "disable" EndSection 4) save file, quit pico, logout. 5) ctrl-alt-F7 to get back to white screen 6) ctrl-alt-backspace to force restart of x-windows
I didn't test the above because I fixed my white screen problem (see next comment) -- [fglrx] Ati x1600Pro White screen on activating compiz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196900 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
